Barack Obama and his failed economic policies are in big trouble with white, middle class voters.

Obama clearly lacks a "sense of vision" that Mitt Romney clearly articulates in his messages to millions of voters who will show up during the November elections.

Discussion follows.

Obama Sinks to Historic Lows Among Blue-Collar Men


The new Quinnipiac University and ABC/Washington Post national surveys out this week converge on one key conclusion: as the election nears, President Obama is sinking to historic lows among the group most consistently hostile to him.

Throughout his career on the national stage, Obama has struggled among white men without a college education. But in these latest surveys, he has fallen to a level of support among them lower than any Democratic nominee has attracted in any election since 1980, according to an upcoming National Journal analysis of exit polls from presidential elections.

Though pollsters at each organization caution that the margins of error are substantial when looking at subgroups such as this, each poll shows erosion within that margin of error for Obama with these working-class white men. The new Quinnipiac poll shows Obama attracting just 29 percent of non-college white men, down from 32 percent in their most recent national survey in April, according to figures provided by Douglas Schwartz, April Radocchio and Ralph Hansen of Quinnipiac. The ABC/Washington Post survey found Obama drawing just 28 percent of non-college white men, down from 34 percent in their May survey, according to figures provided by ABC Pollster Gary Langer. Romney drew 56 percent of the non-college white men in Quinnipiac and 65 percent in the ABC/Washington Post survey.

And of course the other side of the coin is that Romney appears to have historically little support from everyone BUT whites.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Mr. Etch A Sketch has a clear vision?????????????????????????? He's the most insincere flip flopping underhanded "tell'em what they want to hear" manipulative candidate we've ever seen run for president. Somehow that translates to someone with a clear sense of vision. Roflmao.

Not really. Black support for Obama, for example, is down a couple of points from 2008.

Obama is currently polling at 92% among African Americans, and 52% among Latinos age 18-29.

So there is nothing particularly "historically new low" about Romney's numbers among minorities at all.
 
That's true. Many blacks wanted a more Liberal agenda, and Obama didn't deliver.

You mean more handouts?



I wonder how they feel about Obama paying their bills now?

Do you really want to play this game of selecting individual comments? Because I have a ton of them for tea party and southern republicans.

I know right. At first I thought I miss something. All Mitt has done so far is tell the american people Obama is the devil and you should vote for me because I am a successful business man.

Okay, I'll give you that. OTOH ... the proportion of minorities to whites has increased since 2008.

Well that is the great hope of the democrat party, isn't it? Increase the populaces who traditionally have relied on the welfare state in order to increase voters in favor of a welfare state.

No, I don't think the Democrats control procreation ... YET (mwahahahah). I thought that was a Republican thing.

I could care less, I have far more than you do.
 
If you could care less, then you obviously care more than zero, therefore you do care to some extent.

Obama's recipe for economic growth: "All it needs is a little more revenue."

The Democrats believe if they take more money (more revenue) from the "job creators" in the form of higher taxes they can get our economy rising again. And the clueless Democrats wonder why our national economy cannot lift off and once again and soar to new heights! Before we worry about other distractions, let's first concern ourselves with the Congressional policies that are really holding our economy back and preventing it from actually improving!
 
All these desperate threads chanting the "Obama's losing ground with " [name group of choice] mantra, yet still he's stubbornly six points clear of what passes for his opposition.
 
That's true. Many blacks wanted a more Liberal agenda, and Obama didn't deliver.
Many Blacks are also from conservative backgrounds who saw the potential to elect the first black president and took it, and now see how bad Obama is and have gone back to their conservative roots...

Wow... a whole 6 points clear?!? That's enough... let's call the election... well before the usual 5-10 point bump after the naming of the VP candidate, the same 5-10 point bump after the convention, the 3 presidential debates and 1 vice presidential debates... and the undecided voters actually having to decide on election day (which in every election with an incumbent president has gone 80%-20% against the sitting president)... This thing is basically over, right?

I think a lot of blacks are also not fond Of President Obama's views on gay marriage. While they certainly won't be voting for Romney either, they just might stay home this November.
