Freepers count their chickens.

Obama is weak. The pollsshow this. The economy is bad, his base is disapointed, and his opposition incredibly motivated. Freepers, therefore, forget how weak their slate of crazies and not-cazy-enoughs is, and that a year is forever in politics, and just declare victory.

Many even go so far as predicting Obama won't make it to reelection:

sunmars knows Obama will soon quit:

If he’s at 36% heading into another recession like they are calling it this
morning, he’ll quit soon, i can see him getting out of the kitchen.

dandiegirl thinks the scandles will bring him down.

With all the scandals finally being exposed with no telling how much more
that hasn’t come out yet, his second term may well include a trial for
impeachment and likely both houses will be full of Republicans. Love to see him
and his ilk in jail. I’m looking for the BC to be pronounced a forgery. That
would get rid of him tomorrow if the dems really wanted to.

StAnDeliver thinks Obama has been planning to quit:

the GOP nom (Romney Perry Palin Christie) is the next President; Bobo
doesn't want the job without a compliant Congress, he saw the Writing on the
Wall in 2010; I've been saying this for 16 months now and FReepers are starting
to get their mind around the inevitability.

I guess he's hiding it well, then.

Then there are those polls:

FlingWingFlyer mixes up hating Obama with having a grip on reality:

36% is still way too high. I’m really surprised how many people enjoy paying $3.60 for a gallon of gasoline. There are too many people living in this country who have lost their grip on reality.

atc23 knows only blacks like Obama now:

Economist is probably polling the White House staff again.
Out here among the great unwashed, bitter clinging racist millionaires and billionaires it's probably more like 4% approval.
The hand waving photo op last week showing Obama to be the stupidest, most ignorant, mouth breathing, club footed hillbilly ever to be elected president really just did it for me. I wash my hands of this drooling Cletus.

Junior_G knows why poeple voted for Obama - cause it was cool, man!

I believe we may have reached the long-awaited tipping point where—all other
issues aside—it is no longer “cool” to support Barack Obama. When/if that is
happening, Obama stands to lose a large chunk of his most moronic
supporters.

patriciaruth makes up some numbers:

It was once stated that the biased media cause a 17 point skew in election and poll results.
Taking that as a base, then Bush’s lowest rating would have been 39% and Obama’s current rating would be 19%, if we had unbiased media.

Flint predicts tyranny:

If it goes below 35% look out. He will be desperate and there is no telling what
kind of executive orders he’ll start signing as the flying monkeys that surround
him start to panic also.
