This is what is so puzzling about The Won's "personal popularity." It's as though this country has been transported back to high school, where it was considered cool to elect the black guy student council president and the black girl prom queen, merely because they were black. That mentality is the only reason one can imagine for the supposed personal appeal of this very unattractive man.

FTA: He doesn't like people.

That pretty much sums it up. I can't wait until President Romney takes office in January so we don't have to waste any more time trying to figure out how Barry works in order to protect ourselves and our freedoms.

Mr. Sit down and shut up, I won!

The msm pushed this lie and the sheeple believed it.

He's a nasty vicious person with no soul.

I have wondered this myself - what do others see in this man to like? I see a petty, evil, sneering, you can't touch me affirmative action produced child - not a world leader!! Me thinks most just see his skin color and that's about it.

Gee, all those girls and women of the 60's told us men were not that important, their freedoms were however, which included single parent familys, etc.

What happens when a generation grows up embracing narcissism while not knowing it?

"Hell no, we won't go!" "Sex, drugs and rock 'n roll!" Of course, my favorite: "Do your own thing!"

Little Barry Hussein came from a broken, liberal home, a radical environment and mentoring.

He's been looking for his daddy ever since.

Common trait among most libs toward anyone that disagrees with them.

The simple truth is that he is a very ordinary person with a knack for dirty politics, learned Alinsky tactics, and a deep absorption of Marxist philosophy, with a serious lack of intellectual ability.

How dare this guy be on the same stage as me!

This is a result of the Quota Factor. Nobody wants to be perceived as racist or not open minded to the color guy hunched down in the White Hut. If any of us was polled out of the blue, most would say sure I love the guy because its nothing but a little white lie and we can't be accused of being racist. And that is one reason the blow out will be so shocking. The race industry has poisoned the environment so much that honesty can only be expressed in secret. Much like the old Soviet Union.

I swear people like him just because he watches Sportscenter, makes his March Madness picks and has a beer with people he has wrongly insulted. I think the polls about his likeability are just as cooked as all the other msm polls. To me he has been creepy from day one not only to look at but to listen to. He never sounded or acted like an American to me.

Agree with all the other posts here.

Obama's story is one most of us learned as children: The Emperor's New Clothes. I believe that he's popular because he's popular, and few people will point out the truth.

Romney showed marvelous constraint when dealing with this twit. A "Wendy's" brawler, ie, democRat voter, would have smashed his nose.

Honestly, if he were a white man he would be reviled and hated for his attitude. He got a pass all his life and the result is he really thinks he is above all other life forms. God complex? Maybe. I pray he will one day humble himself and know that there is only One God and Savior.

I don't see his attitude any different from the any number of 'democratic strategists' appearing on FoxNews most any morning. Nor from any number of plaintiffs and defendants on Judge Judy and Judge Mathis daytime shows. That 'in-your-face' attitude is apparently the way to get 'street creds' in these circles. In other words, he's playing to his base.

Most of the people who proclaim him "likable" seem to be from inside the Beltway where something in the air makes people loopy. For example, the normally completely sensible Senator Tom Coburn who pronounced the baby killing, Constitution bashing Nancy Pelosi a "nice person".

We are now paying for the terrible age of the 60s. Loose morals, sex, party time, drinking, drugs. Let's forget there is a God, so I can do my own thing. These people raised today's adults and grandchildren. We are paying dearly for it! Obama is an adult from that era. Listen to how he talks to us. He is a spoiled, narcissistic child. His mother was basically a prostitute, his father abandoned him. He makes up a story about his father because his real father is not there. What do you expect?

I beg to differ with Goodwin here:

He apparently believes it is beneath him to consult or get into the details of legislation.

It's the reverse: Obama believes it's above, not beneath him. He doesn't understand, afraid someone will find out he's not that smart, so he presents the picture to others that he's fully aware and competent.

As for O's snarky remarks during the last debate, I'm sure his handlers cringed when they saw him reveal his utter lack of substance. That's what people do who lack substance and real information -- they attack others.

Obama spends time alone because he is always on guard, afraid of exposing himself to others for who he is; a vacuous, vacant, mentally gnarly shell of a man.

He reminds me of Gollum in "Lord of the Rings".

The "won's" personality popularity isn't genuine. It's comes from white guilt. That's why they tell the pollsters they're on board for obama....

When they enter the voting booth -- their good sense and reason will take over....

I'm reminded of the Chick/fillet (sp?)-- turn out....

Hollywood loves the simmering black man. The madder the cuter. It's righteous.

People are afraid to say they don't like a black man. I can't stand the guy. For four years my family have known to keep on clicking when he shows up on our screen or I will go nuts.

Some months ago I got into a debate with a friend over Obama. While he "agreed" Obama was in over his head, he maintained that O was - deep down - a "good man".

As the world is quickly learning, Obama is not a "good man". He is a petty, childish boor who happens to look nice, say clever things (at least, he used to), and come from a vicious Chicago political machine that vaunted him over every hurdle in his career.

Big Bird, Binders, and Bayonets. That's all he has. That's all he ever will have.

Early voting is the only thing that can save him. Let's hope enough people waited to see him unmasked, and don't live to regret an early vote for this juvenile.

In my mind, Obama is basicall a Rev Jeremiah Wright who knows how to hide it.

Life will not be so rosy after the White House for this composite man.

Obama behaves this way becauses he has been doing it all his life and he gets away with it.

Every time Zero pronounces it, "dimockrusseh", I have to wonder if that's the way his Kansas-born, white bread mother taught him to say it.

His sneering at Romney during debates and in his latest speeches is clearly an extension of how he feels about America and us. If he gets re-elected we are in a lot of trouble.

What's the mystery? Obama thinks he's god. Nothing more, nothing less.

I knew what this guy was in 2008 and I'm just a dumb farmer from the sticks. The reason all those smart people bought his shtick? One word: the lame stream media. (channeling Joe Biden)

Has anyone else noticed the really grating habit Obama has been coached into, where he says "li'l" instead of "little?" So we hear "The rich have to pay a li'l more." Or "We'll have to reach a li'l deeper." Along with the thumb-nestled-in-the-bent forefinger "point" that began with Clinton, to the whistling esses, this silly, empty, soulless punk has a bag of focus grouped tricks which, with any luck, we won't have to suffer after January.

During the three debates, the country finally saw the 0bama I always saw. I will never understand how someone could think 0bama was nice or well-spoken other than they've been blinded by the devil.

He is not liked. People pretend to the pollsters to get the label 'racist' off their backs. We are sick to death of him, his cadence, his jive, his lies and his warm, comforting prison stare at his adversaries.

The author voted for him in 2008. Wow I always thought this guy was a "conservative" writer. Guess I was wrong.

"How my mother taught me to work people"

“I had given her a reassuring smile and patted her hand and told her not to worry, I wouldn’t do anything stupid. It was usually an effective tactic, another one of those tricks I had learned: People were satisfied so long as you were courteous and smiled and made no sudden moves. They were more than satisfied; they were relieved—such a pleasant surprise to find a well-mannered young black man who didn’t seem angry all the time.”

Lil teleprompter is the famous grapefruit. The reference is to a grapefruit that someone pointed a webcam at in the early net days; later people woukd go to see it in "real life" when it was placed on exhibition.

Teleprompter is famous because he's famous. The dims worship the man and will excuse him for anything.

This empty suit is so shallow! There is no there there! Does anyone know if there is much credence to the report I read two places today that is seems likely Romney could win the popular vote and Obama the electoral??

Much to the population can no longer recognize truth. They are humiliated for speaking the truth and discouraged from thinking the truth.
Obama was influenced by Frank Marshall Davis, Farrakhan, Rev. Wright and William Ayers. Obama is anything but a nice person.
That goes for his wife too.

Disrespectful. Obama disrespected a good American man. He also has shifty evil eyes.

1.'You guys'
2.'Ta' for to
3.'Bunches of'(fill in blank)
4.'Ya' for you
5.'Ums', 'ahs', ad nauseum trying to connect his "incoherent thoughts"
6.Using 'kids' inappropriately instead of the more respectful 'children'
7.Dropping g's - goin, doin, talkin, etc.

So many examples like this reveal his disdain for his audience as much as his inate inability to speak correctly.
Shouldn't the rather poetic, literary tone of "Dreams..." be reflected at least occasionally when he's speaking?? Of course it can't - he didn't write the book.

Too bad Obama didn't go to kindergarten in the US. His entire affirmative action, foreign student education shows what he truly is...he is not a well-educated American. He has learned from the democrat play book to assassinate the character of everyone to make himself appear intelligent...most people can see that he isn't

38, add to your list the constant use of "a" pronounced with a long a. Most native American English speakers learn that it's not pronounced that way.

(I actually think it's his way of temporizing, instead of "um" or "uh.")

I cannot understand the huge (not so huge anymore) popularity of obozo -- his policies turn my stomach and so does he!!

That's also Netanyahu's fundamental, underlying message to the American electorate: ''Our Iranian pain comes mainly from your Stain's disdain.''

It's high time for my own Apology Tour among my fellow L-Dotters.

If job approval = popular vote then 0 will be around 49-50%. Somebody please walk with through this discrepancy.

I'd love to see a survey done on the topic of Obama using the techniques researchers use for taboo subjects. It basically involves asking not what your answer is but how you think your neighbors/peers would answer the question.

to rely #2 i don't if obama does not like people he seems to get along with the marxists and muslim bother hood but he sure does not seems to like america or americans

He's a user. So is Michele. Users disdain everyone.

The bigger question is why their lovers (and i include everyone from voters to designers to staff to media) allow themselves to be used by this self serving, unattractive pair.

He's Barry Soetoro. He smoked dope. He sold drugs. He lies a lot. He sneers at our great traditions and customs. He's a racist. He's a phony.He's lazy. He's NOT one of us.The experiment with this mulatto failed, and lives have been lost. Get rid of him in less than two weeks. Beat it back to Chi ca-ca and take that loony mooch with ya!

For a moment, if at all possible, forget his Stalinist Marxism agitation habits, and his bowing to Muslim totalitarianism, just forget it for a moment. What American need
to know is the unresolved psychology of his horribly deprived childhood, and the best understanding can be found in the book by Paul M Fick, PhD, THE DESTRUCTIVE PRESIDENT.
The raging, vindictive, dangerous person can be found in this clear cut revelation by
reading just a few descriptive pages from Dr Fick, www.destructivepresident.com

I've never understood why people say he's a nice guy, or personally likeable. He's NOT likeable at all! He's nasty and petulant and thin-skinned and narcissistic. If he ever sneered at Michelle that way I bet she'd slap his face. But Romney stayed cool and came right back at him.

He expects everyone to fawn over him, but he's disrepectful and disdainful of others. He truly has a god complex, and it's not pretty. Those who don't see it just choose to overlook it, because it's so evident it cannot be missed.

This business about so many people liking Obama continues to baffle me. To me, you either like a person because you know that person and you like their personality, what they stand for, their character, etc. or you know of them and what they have done or accomplished or their behavior in public (like an author or an actor or a politician). So people who don't personally know Obama but like him but don't like his policies baffle me. I just don't get it. What is it that they like? That he plays basketball and golf, that he takes a lot of vacations, that his ears stick out, that he has a wife and 2 daughters? What? Just tell me what it is about him that is so likable? I don't like Obama - I don't like his policies and I definitely don't like the arrogant attitude he exudes. But I don't know him personally (and have no desire to).

Do you remember the screaming bobbysoxers who got hysterical crying over the following: Valentino, Rudy Vallee, Sinatra, James Dean, Presley, the Beatles, Duran Duran, Justin Beiber, etc? Notice that the time period makes no difference in the behavior? Whether it was the 1920's, 1950's, 1980's or present day, the reaction over the last 100 years has always been the same. Uncontrollable screaming & raw emotion. No real explanation other than mass hysteria, raging hormones and the fact that young girls love the idea of being in love ... even with someone who is totally unobtainable and can't love them back. In fact, it is this unrequited love that is part of the attraction.
This is my explanation for Obammy. He's a rock star/movie star in the eyes of some people and they don't care he is rude & obnoxious and even probably not too bright. He's ours and you can't have him! It is time for adults to take charge from the children and turn the T.V. off, break the 45 rpm record, ban the movie, ground them to their bedrooms or do what it takes to break the spell.

Great take #52. You have to break that spell with a man who's worthy.

And has handsome face, salt-and-pepper hair, and a sweet demeanor.

I can only hope that some of the foolish women who are tired of Bam's abuse get new crushes on Mitt in time for November. :-)

Me, I am a woman who thinks about what's in the minds of the men I vote for. That's why I despised Obama since the spring of 2007. It's the socialism.

They don't like him, they're afraid of being called racist if they admit they don't like him.

I couldn't believe the American people would elect Clinton. Now the electorate can't disappoint me because I expect the worst.//The number of people I consider real Americans is a minority in the country. We've been swamped by immigrants who won't assimilate and generations now trained by the '60s traitors in academia. Throw in groups like the majority of American Jews who seem to hate this country and we're in sad shape. Obama was handed the Presidency by white, guilt stricken liberals like he's been given everything else in his life.//He stays away from people because they'll find out he doesn't like them and he's not very bright.

It's no surprise. Some people like jock itch and bunions.
