Fewer people seem to be choosing The One these days.  Reports Zogby:

However, President Barack Obama's ratings for job performance and favorability did not improve over earlier this month. In the most recent survey, 49% rate his job performance as excellent or good and 50% as fair or poor (less than 1% were not sure.) That is a dip of three points from the previous poll. The percentages who feel very or somewhat favorable toward Obama remained unchanged between the two polls, with 55% now and 56% in the previous poll.

Dropping poll numbers are not good news if the administration hopes to transform the economy and reform humanity.  The railroad might just go off the rails.

Name calling, like "The One", is childish and loses votes.

The same thing happened with the Democrats. They went through their temper tantrum phase with Michael Moore and calling President Bush "chimp", and THEY LOST! Bush was reelected. It wasn't until they calmed down and started playing smart politics that they won.

Yeah, but after eight years of 'BusHitler' persistance, they won everything BIG TIME. I like TOTUS best. Teleprompter Of The United States.

The Right will never side with enemies and terrorists instead of our President. After calling Bush worse than Hitler, the Left can't complain about any reasonable criticism of Obama's policies.

i agree with Siegfried.
besides, better a Democrat who is a socialist than a lower taxes, higher spending Republican socialist. Read the Derb's take on Bush.

Derb knows best!

Obama's a democrat/marxist. He likes coercion; nothing nice about this monster. Just ask the unfortunate AIG executives who inked a deal with him not too long ago.

Real Politics' average of major polls had President Obama at 61.2 approval before his speech tonight.

The results, which are as high as 64 and 65 percent in some polls, are likely to go up.

Zogby (no repub, he) shows Obama's favorables at 50%, negatives 49%. Looks real bad for your TOTUS, Looper.
