Obama's poll numbers with almost every group has been dropping lately, yet left-leaning Lamestream keeps on reporting his overall approval around 50%. Do you think the media is fudging its reports to mask the truth about Obama's low approval rating?

The truth speaks for itself

A clear case of "second verse same as the first" from the 2008 Zer0-bama campaign.

' FUDGING" Hell no, I think the mainstream media is out and out lyng to protect Obama. They are no longer real news sources.. so I just don't listen!

And they can only stretch the truth 'so' far.

Obama had that lady "laid off" that is what he does when he hears the truth...gets rid of you. She caused him pain in public so it gave her pain...no job...get out the hot dogs and beans..

The MSM (and, more importantly, those who control the MSM) are firm believers in the truism that says "If you repeat a lie often enough and loudly enough then people will begin to believe that it's the truth."

These lamestream ratings are about as truthful as the gay marriage approval ratings - voters have struck down gay marriage every time in 31 states. The lamestream media lies when they say most Americans approve of gay marriage, and they're lying about Obama's approval ratings, too.

I keep wondering who they are polling?!

I say the propaganda is working.... It's also common practice to blame the exiting president for everything as they welcome in the new savior. The thing with 2012 is they didn't pick our next savior for us yet and Ron Paul could end this whole kept Govt hogwash. They won't scrape it all off on Obama this time because Mitt isn't guaranteed to take his place. They have to praise Obama to prevent Paul if Mitt looks to weak to continue with their works in progress. Basically they have to fight for the seated candidate unless they own the next one also, if they own the next candidate they scrape all the hate and controversy onto the seated president to deify the next one freeing him up for more abusable trust from the people. Hence why we hate Bush and love Obama despite them having similarly devastating terms of office. Obamas presidency is nothing particularly praise worthy.

When did they not?

They are in the tank for Obama what do you expect?

The only poll I care about is on election day. I lost trust in the media years ago.

I know what you mean about the polls. The exit polls were saying "Dead Heat" in the Walker Recall Election in Wisconsin last week, yet Walker won by an even bigger margin last week than in 2010.

As usual, you'll never get the full story from the networks or NYTs. Obama's campaign is entering a death spiral.

I expect no less from MSNBC

Those of us who passed our High School Government classes know National polls are meaningless at this point. The Electoral College doesn't work that way. No one is elected by popular vote. 5 Romneys in Nevada does not equal 5 Obamas in California. You have to take polling averages by state and apply them to an Electoral Map.

http://www.realclearpolitics....

Then if you're REALLY smart and know a little arithmetic, you can figure out all by yourself that the current projectable outcomes are Romney 43% - Obama - 56%

Is that what they are telling you there in Italy where you live? LMAO!

Sorry, but any resemblance to reality here by the reports you read are remote.

Learn how the Electoral College works. The President is ahead by 13 points. 10 of Romney's states don't even equal 1 California. Thinking you can project an election result by polling 2000 registered voters across the country at random is Sophomoric.

Obama hasn't won 1 state yet. Romney is up in Wisconsin, Florida, Michigan, North Carolina, Florida, tied in Colorado and closing in in Pennsylvania, all states Obama won in 08.

You are right, but I don't think some of those toss ups are going to be that close. It's going to be real interesting.

The MSM and Obama are going to continue to lie just like they have been for the last 4 years, running cover for this POS president.

The key word is "almost." They're definitely fudging the likely turnout among the only group or groups that think better of him. He has alienated almost all his erstwhile supporters.

Duh, the propaganda began before 2008.

Obama's been on re-election mode since then.

I've noticed that too, especially on MSNBC. From what I'm hearing outside of them it's a 5-7% lead for Romney, about the same margin as the Wisconsin win. There's no doubt Lamestream is covering for their "Chosen One."

Lamestream = Lamebrain

Lamebrain is a more apt description of their viewers.

Polls will not matter this year. I've stated several times out here, people are going to vote with their wallets in November. Whether you are a college grad with no prospect of employment or a unemployed/underemployed 20 year career worker unable to find suitable new employment, you are going to blame Obama for failing you. Obama has no chance of winning in November regardless of the lies his propaganda ministry spews out.

Yes, the media are Liberal bought-and-paid-for. But I don't think Democrats will dump him on voting day because they all agree on their hatred for Republicans. That's what unifies the Left.

They won't throw their votes away on a third-party candidate, either. They'll turn out, and they'll vote Obama... except for some of the college kids who don't generally bother.

true

After how the media has handled 0bama thus far. I would expect the same to continue.

He's not George Bush so they're going to keep supporting him regardless of the things he does.

And the right side of mainstream media is making romney look better then he really is. Media is nothing more than a propaganda machine for the system.

And what percentage of Lamestream is rightwing? For every FOX type media there are more than ten MSM type Lamestreams. With almost 95% left-leaning.

I agree they all suck.

the media have been told not to put obama in a bad light - and they KNOW how many people have died opposing obama so they are covering it all up and debunking all the truth so we dont catch on - well I caught on before the sick leftists and dead people and cartoon characters voted him into office

hint - dont die before this election - you may end up voting for obama from the grave - I wouldnt doubt that the election rolls will include anderw breitbart voting for obama

Well stated!

thanks
