| The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Tuesday shows that 25% of the nation's voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Forty-six percent (46%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -21 That's the lowest Approval Index rating yet recorded for this President (see trends). Fifty-three percent (53%) of men Strongly Disapprove along with 39% of women. Most African-American voters (58%) Strongly Approve while most white voters (53%) Strongly Disapprove. Seventy-four percent (74%) of Republicans Strongly Disapprove as do 52% of unaffiliated voters. Forty-seven percent (47%) of Democrats Strongly Approve. |

| #4 Rasmussen: Demographic Notes - Barack Obama Approval Index December 14, 2009: Seventy-two percent (72%) of Democrats now offer their approval while 80% of Republicans disapprove. Among voters not affiliated with either major party, just 36% approve. Seventy-seven percent (77%) of liberals approve while 76% of conservatives disapprove. The bad news for the President is that there are a lot more conservatives in the country than liberals. However, he gets a bit of a boost because 57% of moderate voters still offer their approval. The President earns approval from 37% of White voters and 98% of African-American voters. |

| #3 We may have to call in poll watchers such as Carter or someone from Zimbabwe (sarc) to make sure ACORN or the BP don't keep people from voting or stuffing the ballot boxes. |

| #2 I fear that the 2010 elections will bring out over 150% of African-American voters and dead Democrats. |

| #1 Most African-American voters (58%) Strongly Approve Possibly some significance here when you take into account the nearly 95% of African-American voters who were reported to have voted for Barry. If 'voted for' is the same as "strongly approve" then the numbers appear to be down some 37%. My hunch is however, even if 95% strongly DISAPPROVED, they'd still give him a second term. |
