Notice, Rasmussen is NEVER used on Polling Report, so stick that in your pipes and smoke it, Freepers!

1. Fox 47% disapproval - I am impressed. n/t

2. The lower his approval numbers go, the more I worry

about them LIHOP/MIHOPing some kind of terra/bird flu/disaster designed to showcase how "in charge" and "leader-like" he is.

It reminds me of naughty toddlers acting out to get attention. If they can't get "good" attention, they'll seek out "bad" attention.

Nevertheless, the kind of LIHOP/MIHOP incident they might try would not be child's play.

11. I'm afraid of this too, but

I hope maybe his handlers will not follow this strategy this time because he fell flat on his face after Katrina - an analogous opportunity to showcase his "leader-like" persona. Maybe they will realize this just won't work anymore.

4. I think Rasmussen uses the same people all the time

up or down a point or two, statistical noise, Rasmussen's a joke

Just wait until we're into the middle of "Heating Season".

That Approval Rating will be damn close to the outside temp come January or so.

7. word..

that's what I'm telling everyone as well. When the old folks and the poor start dying off this winter by freezing to death, or heating their homes with barbecues, that's when the shit is really going to hit the fan.

8. Gallup is such a joke.

Literally no better than Fox News.
