Time to take a look at the presidential race it's right around.

Despite the president's narrowing lead in the -- the real clear politics average -- President Obama remaining more popular than his opponent Mitt Romney.

Take a look at this 52 point 2% of Americans have a favorable view of the president while 46 point 6% have a favorable view of governor Romney.

Spot with a weakening economy can the president win unpopularity alone here to weigh in on this is David -- -- got a brand new book out.

It's called the great destroyer Barack Obama's war on the republic.

David I'm reading your book welcome to -- to -- quote it is actually that and I think I.

I'm reading a book and I'm saying to myself if you -- communal these articles does blow -- away did you did you all this research that shows something totally different than the public seems to be digesting.

Yes except I I reject the premise that he's personally popular I was I've been thinking about that because everybody's talking about it lately.

I think what people are are polled about that they know everybody says he's popular that's media narrative so -- answer no and the -- I'm gonna look like a jerk I don't -- out guidance polarizing American -- -- He says every the Republicans are hostage takers who says they weren't dirty air dirty water could go on by the way all welcome home morning.

Is really.

Likable he's been very petty he's been very -- presidential sorry if that offends people but.

I -- I I think he's the most polarized and polarizing president we ever had second year 68% gap between Republican approval and democratic group.

And when you look at the run up to the election back in 2008 the Republicans ran do you really want a celebrity in chief type guy begins very famous for being famous.

Your brother Rush Limbaugh driver and a cart yesterday when he made this observation about our current president United States which he probably the second life.

-- he's becoming Barack -- action.

I tell -- that's what's becoming.

He is becoming the -- old Kim Kardashian with the stuff and it's been building he is celebrity of the United States he is not the president.

And he is actively and his whole teams out they're pushing this.

And his team is pushing it and he's getting help from the mainstream media.

Yes I just don't see that how that ultimately help so I don't agree that people want -- What do we get deciding what -- buy -- you know you know where we get that I think David -- to get that from people not being informed by the and it's do you do you really believe that every American.

Is informed about all the issues right now now we could argue it's because we're six months away from the election or because people just don't get informed and yes -- -- not his constituents that.

I'm talking about the people who are an expanded the government dependency class and he doesn't want but I will say again the -- and I think people are more informed.

From rash other talk radio Fox News the Internet the blogs Twitter FaceBook -- -- form a more informed electorate than we've ever been people are engaged.

He's destroying this country which is why -- called the great destroyer people are horrified about their future so they're making it their business and now when I firmly believe that this is not -- -- -- point out to somebody is a big ally of his free to Korea is putting your book.

Not he would face in the past -- every business person I talked to feels is so present Obama's anti business it is.

Blatantly and it is I get these people going to rant my quota and full blown out of full but not extensive -- -- shelves.

And -- Fareed said that he's clearly -- a bomb Obama.

Ivan Bloomberg mayor was as the liberal regular public if he made the point to these court -- liberal everybody -- his LeBron by the way we all did -- his liberal most liberal senator in 2007.

And all these people covering up for him.

We knew he was a radical he's been the greatest radical leftist an office we could ever imagine well.

You make the argument against him get another four terms four years another term is called the Greek destroyer if you get something in common with them to both -- law.

We have on time but I kind of live in a lower level -- both -- -- your business sloppy guys David Limbaugh thank you -- Ricky my pleasure thank you.
