ABC/WAPO Poll Uses Questionable Sample to Have Obama Lead Romney 49% to 46% … Under Samples GOP by 10% … NBC/WSJ Skewed Sample as Well

All polls are not created equal … in fact some are just plain disingenuous. 

The most recent ABC/Washington Post poll has President Barack Obama ahead of GOP challenger Mitt Romney, 49% to 46%. Good news for Obama, right? Well, if you like faux polls it is. When will the liberal MSM ever learn that falsifying poll results serves no purpose on election day? The WAPO goes on to say that Obama and Romney are in a dead heat on the economy, Really?

The parity on economic issues foreshadows what probably will continue to be a tough and negative campaign. Overall, voters would be split 49 percent for Obama and 46 percent for Romney if the November election were held now. On handling the economy, they are tied at 47 percent.

Despite flare-ups over issues including contraception and same-sex marriage, more than half of all Americans cite the economy as the one concern that will decide their vote in the fall, relegating others — such as health care, taxes and the federal deficit — to single-digit status.

Voters are evenly divided between Obama and Romney on the question of who could kick-start the economy and also are split on job creation, with 46 percent siding with the president and 45 percent with Romney.

OK, let’s go inside the sampling polling numbers. The full results of the poll can be seen HERE.

The ABC/WAPO poll used the following model sampling: Democrat 32%, Republican 22% and Independents 38%. The exit polling in the 2008 Presidential election was Democrat 39%, Republican 32% and Independents 29%. However, there was a huge change in the 2010 election as Democrats and Obama took a shellacking. Interestingly enough, 2010 exit polling had those voting at Democrat 35%, Republican 35% and Independents 29%.  So the trend is moving to be even rather than Democrats with a large sampling lead. However, that did not stop the WAPO and ABC to use an overinflated Democrat sample to give Obama a more than questionable poll results. The poll over-sampled Democrats to Republicans by 10%, yet Obama only leads Romney by 3%.

Rasmussen: Mitt Romney 50% – Barack Obama 42% … Hardly Good Polling Numbers for an Incumbent President

Polling woes for Barack Obama …

WOW, Rasmussen has the presumptive GOP Presidential nominee Mitt Romney leading Barack Obama 50% to 42%. Of course it is way too early; however, not only would I rather be up by 8% over an incumbent President and have the positive trending as well. The Rasmussen tracking poll consists of a 3 day rolling average and as stated at Powerline, since Obama announced his flip-flop on gay marriage on Wednesday afternoon, this morning’s poll would consist overwhelmingly of people who have heard that news.

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Saturday shows Mitt Romney earning 50% of the vote and President Obama attracting 42% support. Four percent (4%) would vote for a third party candidate, while another three percent (3%) are undecided.

To make matters worse for President Obama, Rasmussen has a total job approval of 4% and disapproval of 55%. Rasmussen’s Obama Approval Index, the difference between the number of voters who strongly approve of his performance and those who strongly disapprove, is at a 5 month low of -22%. More poor polling for Obama, only 37% give the president good or excellent marks for his handling of the economy, while 48% say he’s doing a poor job.

According to Gallup, 6 in 10 Americans said that Obama’s same sex view on gay marriage would not change their view. However, what be the more important number to look at is the number of people that his flip-flop on gay marriage would more likely vote for him. Forget Democrats, they will vote for him no matter what. However,  11% of Independents said that they were more likely vote for Obama, while 23% said they were less likely to. That can explain Obama avoiding the gay marriage issue today.

Make no mistake Republicans, it is no time to get giddy; however, it is a great position to start from. Barack Obama is going to have to do more that just have fund raisers with George Clooney and the Hollywood elite. Obama will be hard pressed to create the same magic he did in 2008, as seen by his poor attendance at Ohio St for his campaign kickoff.  That was a once in a generation election. More to the point Obama must defend his hideous record for the past 3+ years on jobs, the economy, gas prices and out of control debt. There is more to being President that fund raising and class warfare. With the recent overplaying of his hand and politicizing the one year anniversary of the US seals killing Bin Laden, Obama’s recent flip-flopping on gay marriage and the poor jobs number for April … Obama finds himself in a world of trouble. Not to mention that before the 2012 election, the SCOTUS is going to render a decision on the constitutionality of Obamacare.

Bill Clinton Called Barack an “Amateur” … “Doesn’t know how to be President” and is “Incompetent”

Former President Bill Clinton called Barack Obama an “AMATEUR”. Well, if the shoe fits …

According to a new unauthorized biography of Barack Obama by Edward Klein, entitled “The Amateur,” Bill Clinton was reported to have said to his wife Hillary Clinton that Obama was an “amateur” and that she should quit her job as Secretary of State and run against him in the Democrat Presidential primaries. Also, Bill Clinton is reported to have stated that Obama “does not know how to be President” and is “incompetent”.

Bill Clinton explaining to Obama the A, B, C’s of being President …

Bill Clinton thought so little of President Obama — mocking him as an “amateur” — that he pressed his wife last summer to quit her job as secretary of state and challenge him in the primaries, a new book claims,

“The country needs you!” the former president told Hillary Clinton, urging her to run this year, according to accounts of the conversation included in Edward Klein’s new biography of Obama.

The title of Klein’s explosive, unauthorized bio of Obama, “The Amateur” (Regnery Publishing), was taken directly from Bill Clinton’s bombshell criticism of the president, the author said.

“Barack Obama,” Bill Clinton said, according to book excerpts, “is an amateur.”

Clinton further went on to say that Barack Obama was incompetent. In the end, does any one really disagree with Bill Clinton at this point? There are many Democrats who begged Hillary to run against Obama in the Democrat primaries. Had Hillary Clinton challenged Obama, she would have won. Hell, a felon managed to get 41% of the vote in West VA while being incarcerated.

“The economy’s a mess, it’s dead flat. America has lost its Triple-A rating . . . You know better than Obama does,” Bill said.

Bill Clinton insisted he had “no relationship” with Obama and had been consulted more frequently by his presidential successor, George W. Bush.

Obama, Bill Clinton said, “doesn’t know how to be president” and is “incompetent.”

West Virginia Democrat Primary: Obama 59% – Federal Inmate No. 11593-051 Keith Judd 41%

WOW … It is safe to say that Barack Obama need not campaign in West Virginia after last nights embarrassing Democrat Presidential primary. Now imagine if Hillary Clinton or any credible Democrat had challenged Obama in the Democrat primary … Obama would have lost.

Just how unpopular is Barack Obama in West Virginia? A federal inmate actually received 41% of the vote. YIKES! How’s that for some “Hope & Change”? Just how bad is it for an incumbent President when a felon gets 41% of the primary vote. UNREAL. What you will not see during the campaign season of 2012 is Barack Obama and current Democrat West Virginia US Senator Manchin doing any political events. Not if Manchin wants to retain his Senate seat.

Name: Keith Judd
Age: 53
Address: Beaumont Federal Correctional Institution, Texarkana, Texas
Known as: Inmate Number 11593-051
Education: Member of the Federation of Super Heroes, 1976-1982

Barack Obama, the rock start, the One, the Obamamessiah, the incumbent Democrat President managed to lose 10 counties and 41% of the vote to Federal Inmate No. 11593-051. That is correct sports fans, Barack Obama had a primary challenge in last night’s WVA Democrat primary from Keith Judd, a federal inmate. Laughter does not even begin to express these primary results.

In an embarrassment to President Obama, Federal Inmate No. 11593-051 – otherwise known as Keith Judd – won 10 counties and 41 percent of the vote in West Virginia’s Democratic presidential primary Tuesday.

Mr. Judd is incarcerated at the Federal Correctional Institution in Texarkana, Texas, where he is serving a 210-month sentence for extortion, according to The Charleston Gazette. Judd had paid the $2,500 filing fee and submitted a notarized “certificate of announcement” to appear on the ballot.

He is even qualified to have a delegate at the Democratic National Convention, because he won at least 15 percent of vote. However, no one has stepped forward to fill that role.

Inmate Keith Judd circulated his political standpoints to local media. They included opposing national health care reform on the grounds that it violates the 10th Amendment. Also, Obama’s war on the coal industry did him no favors in WV either.

There is embarrassing and then there is this. Inmate 11593-051 actually received enough percentage of the vote that he gained a delegate. Good grief!!!

Obama Way Behind in Catholic Vote As Compared to 2008 … Gallup Poll Tied at 46% A Piece

Once again we see that for Barack Obama, this ain’t 2008 anymore. Obama’s war on religion taking its toll on his poll numbers. 

In the 2008 Presidential election, Barack Obama won the Catholic vote by nine points, 54% to 45%, over John McCain on his way to a seven-point victory.  That was then, this is now.  According to the most recent Gallup poll, Barack Obama and Mitt Romney are tied with the Catholic vote at 46% to 46%. Protestants are also supporting Romney by 9 points, 51% to 41%. As stated at Hot Air, it would appear that Obama has completely alienated and lost millions of Catholic votes after announcing the HHS mandate that would force religious hospitals, schools, and charities to fund contraception, sterilization, and abortifacients.

Catholic voters in the United States are evenly split in their support for Barack Obama and Mitt Romney for president, mirroring the national trend. However, Hispanic Catholics — about 18% of the total group of Catholic voters — are overwhelmingly likely to support Obama over Romney, while a majority of non-Hispanic white Catholics support Romney.

Catholics constitute almost one in four voters in the U.S. today. Did Obama really want to upset that voting block? Also, the US Conference of Catholic Bishops have not relented on the issue of the HHS mandate, and have been so provoked by Obama that they will be openly campaigning against Obama. Fear not Barack Obama, you seem to have a leg up with the heathen vote.

Religious White Catholics Support Romney; the Nonreligious, Obama

Non-Hispanic white Catholics themselves, who make up 75% of all Catholic registered voters, are far from monolithic in their vote choice. As a general rule in today’s political world, the more religious the American, the more likely he or she is to be a Republican and vote for Republican candidates. This rule of thumb is evident among white Catholic voters. Among non-Hispanic white Catholics whom Gallup categorizes as “very religious” or “moderately religious,” Romney wins over Obama by 30- and 22-point margins, respectively. Among nonreligious Catholics, Obama wins by 54% to 40%.

Charlie Cook Calls Barack Obama … “a Metrosexual President” (VIDEO)

Wow, not only is Barack Obama the first black President, he is also according to Charlie Cook, of the famed The Cook Political Report,  a “Metrosexual President.”

How out of touch are these people? As reported at The Daily Caller, Charlie Cook thinks that Barack Obama does not play well in small towns because Obama is a “Metrosexual President”.  Sure it is. Because is has nothing to do with his failed economic policies, Obamacare and socialist agenda? Because that $787 billion stimulus worked so well and unemployment continues over 8%. Millions of Americans have fallen off the employment rolls and record numbers find themselves on food stamps. Let alone the US finds itself hopelessly in debt.

According to his co-guest David Drucker, a reporter for Roll Call, it stems from a dissatisfaction with Washington, particularly with ObamaCare.  However, Cook says it is something more.

“Small towns — states with a large small town rural populations, Democrats in general, the president has had a really hard time,” Cook said. “I mean, we have kind of a metrosexual president … that doesn’t go over well in the small town. And it’s just cultural. It is what it is.”

Barack Obama … Carolina in His Mind … Many Things Have Changed in North Carolina Since 2008

President Barack Obama and his reelect minions have “Carolina in their minds” and it is not a good thing. That’s North Carolina on his mind as Obama could never win in South Carolina. The Obama campaign has been looking for a 2012 campaign slogan to replace, “Yes we Can”, because they obviously can’t and “Hope & Change” as all Americans hope for these days is some change left in their pockets. As seen in what is transpiring in states like Virginia, Florida and North Carolina, their slogan should be, “This Ain’t 2008 Anymore”. In 2008 Obama beat McCain in the Tar Heel state; however, he would be hard pressed to do that again and pick up those electoral votes.

North Carolina represented the high water mark for the great Obama wave in 2008 — but he’s swimming against the tide there in 2012.

No state better illustrates the challenge Obama faces in trying to consolidate the historic gains of his 2008 campaign at a time when hope, change and optimism have been supplanted by anger, skepticism and disillusionment.

It’s not merely that fewer than 45 percent of state voters approve of the job performance of the president who’s set to land there Tuesday, or that the state’s unemployment rate is pushing double digits. Or that both houses of the state legislature flipped from blue to red in 2010.

We have stated for quite some time that it is a near impossibility for Barack Obama to catch lightening in a bottle as he did in 2008. That was then, this is now. What is Obama’s greatest issue to rally the troops … um, maybe his record as President for the past 3+ years, over 8% continued unemployment, out of control spending, record number of Americans on food stamps, record number of Americans on federal disability, escalating gas prices and Obama himself … the $5 trillion man. Oh yea, and Obamacare.

Honestly, as James Taylor sings … the only way Obama will win Carolina is “in his mind”.

Barack Hussein Obama Says, “In Just Three Years… We’ve Begun to See What Change Looks Like” (Video)

AMERICA, HOW’S THE “HOPEY-CHANGEY” THING WORKING FOR YA?

UNREAL, Barack Obama actually thinks that America is on the right path and we are beginning to see what change looks like. Of course “what change looks like” is defined as Obama’s agenda to make every American dependent on the government from pre-birth to grave.

President Barack Obama is actually proud of his accomplishments as President, really? Obama told a group of supporters today,“In just three years, because of what you did in 2008, we’ve begun to see what change looks like. We’ve begun to see it.” Listen to the comment at the 1:35 mark of the below VIDEO, President Barack Hussein Obama says the unthinkable.

Fans, Foes Greet Obama, in Mich. for Fundraisers: MyFoxDETROIT.com

The full transcript of the video clip can be seen at Real Clear Politics.

We knew it wasn’t going to be easy. We knew the changes that we believed in wouldn’t necessarily come quickly, but we understood that if we were determined that we could overcome any obstacle, that we could beat any challenge. And in just three years, because of what you did in 2008, we’ve begun to see what change looks like. We’ve begun to see it.

So Barack Hussein Obama’s change looks like the following:

• Record number of Americans on food stamps.
• $5 trillion in new debt.
• continued above 8% unemployment.
• Barack Obama has added 5.4 Million to federal Disability Rolls.
• Barack Obama has tripled the US deficit.

Michelle Obama Says that the Obamamessiah “has brought us out of the dark and into the light.”

GOOD GRIEF!!! MICHELLE OBAMA PREACHING THE GOSPEL OF BARACK OBAMA …

First lady Michelle Obama says that her husband the “President has brought us out of the dark and into the light.” Wow, he really is the Obamamessiah. NOT! I guess when Michelle Obama once said that this was the first time she was proud of America, she was really telling the truth.

Michelle Obama made a remarkable claim when talking up her husband, President Barack Obama, at a campaign event earlier today in Nashville, Tennessee.

“I am so in,” Michelle Obama said toward the end of her remarks. “I am going to be working so hard. We have an amazing story to tell. This president has brought us out of the dark and into the light.”

ARE YOU SERIOUS? HOW FULL OF THEMSELVES ARE THESE PEOPLE?

Micah 7:8 King James Version (KJV): Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD shall be a light unto me.

Matthew 4:16 New International Version (NIV): the people living in darkness have seen a great light;on those living in the land of the shadow of death a light has dawned.”

More from the Washington Times …

Let’s just add one thing, beware of false Prophets and if Michelle Obama thinks that present day economic America is the “light”, does anyone want another 4 years of this nonsense? Add to the fact that race relations in America are worse under the so-called post-racial President.

Former VP Dick Cheney Calls Obama an ‘Unmitigated Disaster to the country’ … As They Say, If the “Unmitigated” Shoe Fits …

Well is the “unmitigated disaster” fits Mr President …

Dick Cheney can best be described as new heart, same passion … Just three weeks after Dick Cheney’s heart transplant surgery, the former Vice President made the following comment referring to President Barack Obama, “He has been an unmitigated disaster to the country.”    Cheney went on to say that he could not remember a more important time to defeat an incumbent President like Barack Obama. Cheney certainly knows how to drive the LEFT crazy. However, if one actually looks at Obama’s record, even the LEFT, they know that Obama has been a failure as President.

Dick Cheney, just weeks after undergoing heart transplant surgery, plunged back into the political theater Saturday — praising presumptive nominee Mitt Romney while slamming President Obama as an “unmitigated disaster.”

The tough words came during an hour-and-15-minute talk at the Wyoming Republican Party state convention in Cheyenne on Saturday.

He sat in a plush chair throughout the long chat with daughter Liz Cheney and looked decidedly healthier than recent appearances where he has been gaunt and used a cane.

The United States has record federal debt, record people of food stamps, 8.2% unemployment, a 30 year low of employer participation in the work force, wasted Stimulus tax payer funds, continued housing foreclosures and gas prices doubled during his tenure. Add in Obamacare, the failed green energy scandals like Solyndra and the “Fast & Furious” scandal.  So how is Obama not an “unmitigated disaster”?
