Who’s bailing on Obama?
Made popular 314 days ago in Politics
washingtontimes.com — He’s down 13 points with voters ages 18 to 25, nearly half of whom think he’s done a mediocre job, according to Students for Life of America. The healthy young don’t really care about health care, but they do care about jobs — and nearly 2 million 20- to 24-year-olds are unemployed.

The rate is far worse if you’re young and black. For blacks ages 16 to 19, the unemployment rate is now 39.3 percent, up from 36.5 percent last month. Older blacks don’t fare much better: The overall rate for blacks rose nearly a full percentage point in June to 14.4 percent.

Obama has dropped most among less-affluent whites, down nine points with whites who make $60,000 or less per year.

Mr. Obama is perhaps doing worst among postgraduate white women — down nine points.

Jews, also are bailing in droves. A June poll by Gallup showed the president down 10 points to 64 percent — he took three-quarters of the vote in 2008.

A new NBC News-Wall Street Journal-Telemundo poll shows 66 percent of Hispanics nationwide support Mr. Obama, yet he took 67 percent of the vote in 2008. “Their interest in this election remains far below 2008 levels, and lags well behind other key groups this cycle,” NBC News said.

He may pick up many who are living off unemployment, welfare and food stamps. Many have found that although they don't live high they do manage free cell phones, cable TV service and flat screen TVs. Those make up the democRAT voter bloc.
