Methinks that when people actually find out more about The Rube, such as the fact that he voted again this,:

and this,:

it's going to have a slight impact on his likability ratings. As for now, we can thank our lovely MSM for once again expanding this phony's name recognition.

It is possible to make a poll show what you want by how the questions are asked and that is what is going on with this one. Obama has a real high approval rating compared to any of the other pols in all polls I've read in a while. except'n of course this one you link too.

endear him with his conservative base. He seems to relish speaking about them. I hope the liberal press keeps asking him about them. Give him plenty of room to cause his base to rethink whether this is the person they want to hang their comeback on.

If he thinks using it to connect with minority voters, I think young people can read through him.
