The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Wednesday shows that 50% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Obama's job performance.


The GOP's numbers are plunging:

Gallup: Republican Party Favorability Sinks to Record Low

<...>
the Republican Party is now viewed favorably by 28% of Americans, down from 38% in September. This is the lowest favorable rating measured for either party since Gallup began asking this question in 1992.

Isn't this where GG or Snowie would drop another "bombshell" to wipe out these gains to help their GOP cheerleaders? They must feel like day old toilet paper right about now.

"BOMBSHELL! Americans are having their financial information monitored!" - Snowjob

Thanks, Eddie. A two-man police department in a one-horse town back in the 1950's could do just that with their eyes closed.

Glad you're here! Well, WE will not be distracted.

EYES on the PRIZE, guys: Taking back the House. Keeping the Senate. Send the teabaggers into political exile where they belong, defanged, declawed, and decisively isolated.

I know, I know. I want to - so bad!!!! But we don't have this won yet. Still mighty uncertain.

Just don't drop your guard! Not for a second. Remember the warning Mad-Eye Moody always gave to Harry Potter: "CONSTANT VIGILANCE!!!"

RCP averages show a slight uptick in the Prez's approval ratings, but nothing major...yet. Hopefully the trend will continue (it usually takes a week or so for events to make a difference in the poll averages), but I think the celebrations are a little premature. And yes, I know RCP is a Republican-leaning site, but their polling data is usually sound (or "skewed", as the Tea Party cult would say).

Anything with a presidential approval rating above 10% and a Republican approval below 90% is a skewed poll fabricated by a communist Jewish conspiracy cooked up by the satanic muslim brotherhood led by the devil's own army of invisible terminator machines...or, what you guys refer to as "The Flying Spaghetti Monster".

Follow the meatballs, folks!

to keep their approval ratings low until the 2014 elections.

My suggestion - do nothing, just let them keep acting like Republicans.
