Yesterday we discovered that the President failed to sell out a crowd at the Roosevelt Hotel in New York City despite calls and pleas for supporters to pay $100 per ticket to see him speak for a half hour. Apparently, he can no longer sell out a crowd, even at bargain basement prices.
Today, we have concrete proof of the severity of his unpopularity. A new CNN poll confirmed that he is tanking. In fact, Obama has fallen 8 points in three weeks, and now has a 42% approval rating. And this was a CNN poll. The real number is likely even lower.
This news comes at a time when the GOP is already motivated to get to the polls in November. Each day brings better numbers and news for conservatives, which further validates their cause and heightens their enthusiasm. In fact, apparently, Obama's approval rating is now the same as President Clinton’s in 1994 before the midterm elections that saw Republicans gain control of both the House and Senate. As I predicted several months ago, this election year we will see the same phenomenon, and in states that are tried and true blue.
