Like they say...I knew Jack Kennedy and sir you are no Jack Kennedy. I live in Florida, Gainesville to be exact...and this is no Florida poll. Unless Rasmussen is interviewing Largo and Pensacola only...this is the biggest pot of crock ever...so Obama has a higher approval in TN...where he lost...than Florida...where he won..you know I have this nice little bridge I would like to sell you.

Oh yeah...Rubio(39/34 favorable) who is barely known to anyone outside of the GOP is beating Meek more handily than Crist who has a 57/41% favorable rating..have you made up your mind on that bridge?

Rasmussen is good for a laugh. 42/58 approval for Obama? That is nonsense. Another GOP pollster had Obama at 45 percent in Louisiana, so Rasmussen totally gets the results they want nothing scientific. Likely voters are about 80 percent White. Rasmussen assumes that in mid term elections only a handful of Blacks, Hispanics and Asians show up to the polls, so of course they will get what they want.

Farleftandproud:

Rasmussen always knows how to get the results they want. I think to them Likely voters are mostly Likely White Voters. Even if you put an equal number of GOP Democrats and Independents it is obvious why they get results that favor the GOP.

When Obama's approval in VT is below 55 percent on Rasmussen, than it will definetely be time to take these guys to court for being frauds.

Exactly farleft..I mean they are accusing Obama of being a socialist...and Vermont voted for a KNOWN socialist....aaaah I can't hold those two thoughts in my head at the same time

As bad as it sounds Rasmussen is always good for a worst case scenario. Unfortunately, that's all its good for. I believe Zogby does this as well. They both screw methodology (namely party alignment) and stand out above other pollsters. So in the end they get the media coverage, contracts, ect (insert conspiracy theory).

They should be embarrassed to print this garbage.

I don't think anyone should be writing off this poll and its findings about Obama's popularity in FL as ridiculous. Don't forget that this is a senior-heavy voting populace and Obamacare is reviled among that demographic. The GOP will win congressional seats next year due in large part to the seniors scared out of their mind about government-run health care.
