The *Washginton Post* has a new
poll<http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-fix/wp/2013/06/26/passion-fades-for-president-obama-among-democrats/>
showing
that support for the President among Democrats is dropping. The*Washington
Post* poll was conducted among 1010 adults with an MOE of +/- 3.5%, June
19-23.
Only 58% of Democrats *strongly* support Obama, down from 72% in January.
His numbers also took a tumble among those who describe themselves as
liberal democrats (AKA his base) with his intensity falling from 78% at the
beginning of this year to 60%. There is even a drop among non-white
respondents from 62% in January to 53%.
Intensity on a scale is important as a metric because it registers the
level of enthusiasm and commitment. In this poll, we find that enthusiasm
dropping among groups who ought to be his core supporters.
Among registered voters, 52% have an overall favorable opinion of Obama.
If support continues to drop, Obama will not be a help on the 2014
campaign trail.
