Though a March 6 poll by NEWSWEEK garnered him a 72 percent favorable rating, President Barack Obama is getting a failing grade in an MSNBC online poll today. Oh, how things change quickly!
After casting my vote this morning as one of nearly 175,000 cast in the liberal cable news network’s “unscientific survey,” the graphic above appeared on my screen, revealing that Obama received an “F” from 57 percent of respondents.
Incredibly, 21 percent gave him an “A” while the rest of the results were spread out fairly evenly — “B” = 6.3 percent; “C” = 4.9 percent; and “D” = 11 percent.
I can’t wait to see how MSNBC hosts Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews will try to spin this one tonight. Oh wait, they’ll probably not mention it.

UPDATE 3/16/09: I revisited the MSNBC site this afternoon and found that either the Obamatrons have rallied to the President Obama’s side or MSNBC has “cooked the books” in their unscientific survey which now shows 59 percent of 683,670 survey participants have given the president an “A.” I suspect the former is true.

The percentage of people casting As have increased one percent since I blogged about this poll yesterday. Apparently Obama’s electronic army got lazy.

A lot of voter remorse in a few months is going to put him at a consistent “F”, once his socialism kicks in, and no amount of tingly-legged Matthews “Obamagasms” can cover up the truth of Barry’s bumbling.
