DRASTIC OBAMA DROP

I'd be worried if it wasn't for the fact that Rasmussen is such a RW shill.

Ten different polls can show Obama's ratings within a point or two of each other, yet Rasmussen puts him seven points lower and suddenly they're spreading the gospel.

Uh, no.

Rasmussen has him at 42%. The others have him in the high 40s to 50%.

"Overall, 42% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the president's performance."

You're comparing apples to oranges, The poll described in the OP defines a "presidential approval index" as "strongly approve" minus "strongly disapprove", while your source defines it as "approve" minus "disapprove".

Try comparing polls taken on the same dates....not a week apart....
(within the margin of error)

Accuracy ratings of polls....?

excellent polls--Gallup, Harris and Rasmussen polls are of high quality

Certainly not CNN or ABC or NBC....

Give me a break, bonehead. I'm talking about one pollster skewing from the average by a greater number than the margin of error. I know your Obama hatred blinds you to facts but seriously, all those other pollsters aren't just ganging up to make Rasmussen look bad.

Which again shows that Rasmussen isn't using the same standards as all the others, and still shows their results as suspect.

It's not some ill-defined "standards" that are the issue, but one of full disclosure. Rasmussen clearly indicates who's doing the approving, democrats or republicans or unaffiliated. He appears to be the only one doing a daily poll, therefore can show the most accurate trend.

"After the 2010 midterm elections, Scott Rasmussen was citied by political statistician Nate Silver as the least reliable and most biased pollster of the 2010 cycle.[25] Silver noted that Mr. Rasmussen's polls "exhibited a considerable bias toward Republican candidates." Silver explained that, on average, Rasmussen polls missed the actual margins by a considerable 5.8 points and his polls maintained an average bias of 3.8 points towards the Republican candidate. As a result of his erroneous polling, Mr. Rasmussen picked the wrong winner in 4 Senate races of the 2010 cycle; Nevada, Colorado, Alaska and Washington."

Of course, this ignores that Rassmussen uses a "likely voter" model for his polls that have been shown to significantly favor Republicans.

and, while you're at it, yoiu seem like you don't approve of her allegedly insulting her husband, YET, you don't say anything to zappa and instead attack me, thus clearly indicating your approval of zappa insulting DY's wife while disapproving of someone else doing the same

this is the attack christie? this is not an attack on your husband like zappa attacked DY's wife, this is more of an attack on you, not your husband. tff how you always bitch when others call people for not calling out their side, yet here aer doing so. once again, proving you're a hypocrite.

still, family members should be left out unless its yo momma jokes.

it still was not the insult christie made it out to be....she incorrectly analogized it to zappa's insult and its hypocritical for her to have a problem with your post, yet, say nothing and essentially defend zappa's.

That wouldn't affect the trend, which clearly shows The Obama as tanking.
