Super easy to know why... Sample sources. If they contact primarily from liberal bastions, say New York City, Boston and DC, even if they self identify as independent, or republican they are going to have a typically more liberal view than say a Military base in Texas.

Poll result are what pollsters make of them. Take far right and far left,divide by two get more accurate number. We'll see how numbers are after FSA sees they have to pay tax on Obama care subsidies.

IM surprised its not higher tbh. I mean whats reported in an "ABC" poll. If you're gonna make up stuff just give him a 75% approval rating. What does it matter at this point.

Here's how:
...the same way we have a "record economic recovery" |

Yes and unemployment is down and we are better off now than we were 6 years ago, etc., etc.. I don't believe a word of it, they skew every number to promote their agenda.
FBHO and his number crunchers. |

A pass for illegals for breaking our laws
Free college Tax the evil rich = increase in approval rating One thing we know is if a republican wins in 2016 within months thereafter the Dems and the Media will trot out the real unemployment # and blame the right. |

with just 14 percent of Republicans approving of him (up just four points from last month) View Quote Who? |

The poll seems to be based on what people think of the economy.
Only 24% strongly support him. |
|
|
Well WTF, of course. 49% of the people are on the dole, anything good for them is good for zero. That communist pariah can't be gone soon enough.
|
|
I still don't understand how stealing from everyone and giving to a few bumps up his ratings.

Carefully selecting your sample groups is the easiest way of manipulating poll results aside from outright lying.

Now is the time to invest in preparation H because a lot of people are going to be butt hurt when they file their taxes. |

Yeah, I believe it.
The majority of people aren't ARFCOM folks. They have no clue what the hell is going on and live in ignorance basically consumed by their day-to-day lives. Only about 25% of this nation are what I would call Patriots with maybe another 25% who like to "feel" Patriotic from time-to-time. The other 50% of are total morons, liberal idiots, and evil statist looking to grab every penny they can through socialist means. |

The economy is a matter of them simply cooking the books. Most people don't understand the unemployment numbers or even how many different numbers there are that you need to look at. I usually just steer people to the labor participation rate and ask them how it can be that bad if the economy is really doing well.

Just wait, it will drop again. As soon as all the people who got obamacare subsidies, dont' get their "refund" for the taxes they didn't pay.

This. Polling on the economy is directly correlated to the moving average price of gasoline: gas costs less, approval goes up, and vice-versa. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

The facts show that the US economy is booming and the overall opinion of Americans is becoming more and more optimistic about the future. The unemployment is at pre-2008 crash levels, and then you have Obama doing things like normalizing relations with Cuba and other popularity contest moves.
So it's no real surprise.

I call bs.
You can fudge numbers, just like the unemployment numbers are fudged. They can make 29% unemployment look like 6% too. |

Nobody is refuting these numbers. Not a single conservative group with access to statistics has put a case forward that shows the books are being cooked. It's all just speculation about "well they must be cheating". Suspicion alone with no facts to back it up, does not prove any wrongdoing. |

I thought the polls were BS when they said he was in the low 40s....Everyone knows he gets 47% approval by default.
Even if Hillary wins I'll breath a sigh of relief knowing that the filthy piece of trash will be gone.....That's how bad he is for the country. |
