I don't think the number you are refering to has an imaginary component, not only that it also appears to be quite rational at first glance.Originally posted by Ben Kenobi View PostWake us when the real numbers get released.Modern man calls walking more quickly in the same direction down the same road “change.”

I think that opinion in the United States is decidedly different from the rest of the world because we have a free press -- by free, I mean a virgorously presented right wing point of view on the air and available to all.- NedComment

Tell BIG LIES and tell them often. The Repubs seem to think this works especially when they have a mouthpiece like Fox.
Side note: Cnn's number was 75,000. Look at their coverage. Anyone who thinks to ask me: where's the link, help me out and go to CNN, find a relevant articl and post it for me. I can't really do that -- both knowledge and conditions for use.

Well in fairness, I think what he was getting at was that it depends A) on the pollster, B) whether likely voters are sampled, and/or C) whether "favorable" or "approval" is used in the question. Not that I particularly trust Rasmussen, but it does vary:
Wait, did I just defend BK?

Read the damn post you quoted. "Favourable" is not synonymous with "Approval".Originally posted by DinoDoc View Post"The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

True. I shudda looked at job approval, not favorability.Originally posted by Asher View Post
At this point in Bush's Presidency, I would have voted "favorable" for him because he seemed like a nice, down-to-earth guy. I would not have given him a positive job approval rating because he was trying to resurrect Star Wars to the exclusion of other military and diplomatic efforts, and was squandering our budget surplus on tax breaks for the ultrawealthy.
Something similiar is probably going on for Obama. He's a charming, upstanding guy, so people think favorably of him. But the economy is continue to worsen, and people are becoming concerned by the constant cried of the Republican'ts who are shocked, shocked that the budget is facing huge deficits. So his job approval is declining.Comment

At this point you probably would have given him a positive approval rating like 90% or so of the rest of the country.Comment
