First lady Michelle (ma belle) Obama is asking anyone who still supports her husband to pony up some Benjamins to help Democrats recreate the get-out-the-vote machine that helped deliver Barack Hussein Obama (mm mmm mmmm) the White House two years ago.

In an e-mail put out yesterday by the president’s political arm, Mee-shelle asked for donations as small as $3.  According to the Queen of the Regime, each dollar donated would be matched by another supporter as Democrats desperately scramble to keep Republicans from being elected as the majority of the House and possibly the Senate.

According to the America’s nutrition/fashion/travel expert:

The plan for this election is based on the lessons we learned two years ago.  Our organizers and volunteers are knocking on doors every weekend, making calls every night. Your support will help to fund this work.

Mrs. Obama, who enjoys high popularity (among some.  But, more of that later.) and is an in-demand guest among Progressive sycophants, also plans a call with activists Wednesday, hoping to re-ignite the enthusiasm that elevated an unknown freshman senator to the presidency.

Mee-shelle wrote in her e-mail that:

Now, Barack and I need you to help show that energy again.  Barack can’t keep making progress without strong allies in Congress.  And now the same people who’ve opposed us at every turn are targeting the folks who voted to make change real. They think we can’t do it again. But they’re wrong.

Michelle (ma belle) may have a problem raising funds from Americans.  I have some good news and some bad news for her:

The good news concerning her husband is that he is very popular among blacks, holding steady at 91%.

The bad news is every other American does not  like him that much.

The fact is, 28 days before his first midterm elections, the post-racial President’s approval ratings remain below 50%.

A new Gallup Poll released yesterday finds that Scooter’s approval rating for September was 45%, almost the same as August’s 44%. Obama has not been over the crucial 50% level in a single month so far this year.

Right now, you’re asking:  Well, KJ, since Obama’s name is not on any ballot Nov. 2, the percentage of Americans who like or dislike this putz on Oct. 1 of a midterm election year shouldn’t matter, should it?  Au contraire, mon Frere.

When a Presidents holds approval ratings below 50% at the time of the midterm elections, their party is dealt severe losses in its congressional membership, no matter how much explaining and blaming of the other party or previous president that the current president attempts in the campaign leading up to the midterms.  As you’ve always heard, the midterm elections are, in fact, a referendum on the sitting president.

Since Democrats currently hold substantial majorities in both the Senate and House of Representatives, they have a lot more seats to lose. if the Dems lose 39 House and 10 Senate seats, the Republicans would gain control of both houses for the first time since they lost it in 2007.

Democrats (79%) and liberals (75%) still like Obama a lot.

However, according to Gallup, Liberals only comprise 20 % of the U.S. population.

After that little glimmer of hope, his approval percentage goes into the porcelain receptacle. Support among even young people is down: 57%. Hispanics: 55%. Moderates: 54%. Unmarrieds: 53%. Easterners: 52%. Women: 47%. Midwesterners and Westerners: 45%.

Men: 43%. Southerners: 41%. Independents: 40%. Marrieds: 39%. Seniors: 38%. Whites: 36%. Conservatives: 23%.

Amazingly, among Republicans Obama still manages to hold the support of 12%.

RINOS!

Given the tanking poll numbers of President Obama and Liberal politicians in general, the following information piqued my curiosity:

The Democratic National Committee reported yesterday that September was the committee’s best fund-raising month of the election cycle, beating the previous high total, in March, by a significant amount.

Brad Woodhouse, a committee spokesman, said that the organization had raised more than $16 million last month.  In March, the committee raised about $13.3 million.

The democrats proudly boasted that most of September’s money came from the kind of contributors who fueled the Obama for President campaign in 2008: low-dollar donors who gave online or sent small checks in the mail.

According to Woodhouse the trend demonstrated:

…the increased energy we’ve seen in the polls and among our grass-roots activists.

Hmmm.  I wonder, given the controversy over the anonymous donors to Obama’s Presidential Campaign, if these “activists” were the same ones that NYC Ground Zero Mosque Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf visited on his “Goodwill Tour” funded by Obama’s State Department?  Just curious.
