His approval rating is 47% and over 50% with age 18-54 demographic. His disapproval rating is below 50%, however.

Also, expect Obama's approval rating to slowly shoot up as Americans realize that he did a 180 to the **** show economy GW left. Unemployment down to under 5.8% and for those with a degree it's much less. And Jobs being added by U.S. companies at best rate since early 1990s. By and large our economy has already accomplished what Obama said it would under his watch, and only looking better as he finishes off the remainder of his second term.

Democrats came in and fixed a ****ty economy/recession past 2 times now, cleaning up GW and Bush/Reagan mess with a smile and a flexed arm. Why would anybody ever vote for a republican again?

This is the victory lap and dance for democrats. GOP can EAD for breakfast, everything Dems said about Obama and economy was right

even in real life voting, ikes abstains from having a dog in the fight so that he will never be "wrong"

Lmao so true apparently

such fanfic

Well, nothing "enduring" anyway. I'm sure the probability that we'll see "assertive disarmament", "precision strikes" and "collateral damage" in Iran increases dramatically with HRC at the helm (v practically any other Dem).

Also:

Once bitten, twice shy after "McCain wins the general and it won't be close."

It's precisely because of people like you that you get the kind of candidates you get.

Oh did I abstain in 2012? Derp derp.

nope. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

Voting for Gary Johnson proves schu's point exactly. You would never be wrong about the purely hypothetical Gary Johnson administration.

Last time I checked, elections were still decided by vote count.

Right that's what proof is. Couldn't be that I voted for the same reasons wookie did.

No way!?

When he offered to put tort reform on the table during the great Obamacare freak out of 2009. When he offered to talk about entitlements during the great debt ceiling freak out.

I am, but I could be a dual citizen if I really wanted to be. Pops' family is Americano yo.

Pretty surprised they drive on the right side of the road in Iran tbh.

Why? Most of the world does, minus UK and Australia

Probably also surprised they drive cars instead of camels

Ireland, Malta, and Cyprus too

Final jeopardy question a couple months ago

I didn't realize this was needed for the general election. If it was at all effective it would have swayed the last election.

You didn't realize money was needed for a general election?

Wasn't Obamacare more or less an idea that, like, the Heritage Foundation or some other righwing policy group proposed in response to Hillarycare?

This isn't a new thought, but the problem with D's being "fine" with Hillary and thus her not being challenged in the primary is that it shifts the aggregate message further right. Similar to how the Tea Party forces R's to give a nod to the far right (read: crazies), it'd be nice for Hillary to actually have to prove her liberal bonafides.

Pragmatism is winning out over vision, which would be fine a year from now, but doesn't feel great today.

Of course it was. But you can't expect the right to support their own plan when it's being endorsed by a black POTUS. Get with the program.

yeah republicans totally pushed for that program.... never of course BUT A THINK TANK CAME OUT FOR IT ONCE! RACISM DURR DERP
