Poll shows Obama popularity slipping in Virginia

"A new poll shows President Barack Obama’s popularity in Virginia has slipped below 50 percent.

The Public Policy poll of 617 likely general election voters showed Obama with a 48 percent approval rating, which is within the poll’s margin of error of plus or minus 4 percent.

The survey showed 46 percent disapproval and 6 percent not sure.

The opinion is highly polarized, the poll shows, with 95 percent of Democrats but only 9 percent of Republicans viewing him favorably. Fifty-two percent of independents disapprove of his performance with only 38 percent approving.

The poll was taken June 30 through July 2."

I guess we have to look at the Independents to really get a clue as to what is Happening.

The 95% of Democrats would follow him over a cliff like the lemmings they are. The Republicans are also biased and rightfully so in this case. However the Independents show they are losing the faith in his Hopey-Changey and even some of his suckbutts like Colon Powell are starting to see the mistake they made.

This would be the most polarized poll of any political figure I have ever seen. The values given are so extreme, I have doubts about the methodology. I'd like to think more people are changing their minds about him, but this poll doesn't look very well done.

Nonuts doesn't have an opinion. He just copies and pastes what he reads.
