Not bad, huh?! Only 7% of liberals disapprove. You wouldn't know it by some of the posts here.

1. I'm struck by the 42% approval from conservatives.

That seems major to me. Turning the red states purple. :headbang:

[jenmito]

3. It makes me wonder how there's such a big difference between

"Repubs." and "Conservatives." I would've thought those numbers would've been the other way around. But it's VERY good news, since only 21% of people consider themselves "Repubs." while I've heard MANY people use the line that they don't consider themselves Repubs., but they DO consider themselves Cons. :D

13. There are, of course, conservative Democrats and Independents.

Many Southern and Midwestern Dems, for example, more than likely self-ID as conservatives.

2. I consider myself an "approve"

and complain quite frequently.

I "approve" because he's "our guy" and he deserves a grace period.

[jenmito]

5. Happy to hear it. Do you consider yourself a liberal?

Just because there are libs. here who do NOT approve, or so they say here.

[DireStrike]

9. Oh yeah I should have mentioned that. Yes, I'm definitely a liberal.

I can easily see why others would not approve. But it's all we've got.

[jenmito]

15. OK. Thanks for letting me know.

:hi:

[droidamus2]

4. Also interesting

Some in the MSM would have you think that liberals are all mad and disapproving because President Obama isn't giving them everything they want. I think 90% shows that is obvious bull.

[jenmito]

7. Yup. I'm glad most people don't seem to believe the hype

in the "liberal" media.

[AtomicKitten]

6. Obama is doing well with indies and since the R party has shriveled up

... that's especially good news!

K&R

:hi:

[jenmito]

8. Exactly. Many Indies are former Repubs.

Thanks for the K&R! :hi:

10. What's weird is that all 5% of disapproving Democrats post in GD/P!

How freaky is that?

:evilgrin:

[jenmito]

19. It sure seems that way! n/t

[Ian David]

11. So, 66% of the 21% of Americans who are still Republicans disaprove of Obama. n/t

[tomp]

12. remember when 90% of the country supported bush?

these numbers mean nothing except that when some of us stand on principle we can expect castigation.

[FrenchieCat]

14. The difference is 90% supported Bush out of fear.....

While Those who support President OBama do so out of Hope. Big difference!

[msallied]

17. Bingo!

[jenmito]

18. Exactly. n/t

[jenmito]

16. Yeah-after the biggest attack on our country. And then he ruined it because

he's an incompetent liar.

[Political Heretic]

20. I approve and I also criticize when I believe it is necessary.

I'm pleased by these numbers, and I give Obama's first 100 Days a B.
