Obama Poll Numbers At All Time Low
Tuesday, December 22, 2009 at 10:20AM Rasmussen Reports just released their daily tracking poll and the numbers are humbling (if that is possible) for Obama.
A few details:
- 46% strongly disapprove of his job performance
- 53% of men and 39% of women strongly disapprove
- 25% strongly approve of his job performance
- More women strongly approve than men
- Gap of minus 21 points is the highest to date for Obama
- He was plus five exactly six months ago
- 62% of independents disapprove of his job performance
Health Care, Cap & Trade and spending in general have clearly taken a significant toll on Obama. However, his strategists knew it would and they have taken a calculated risk that they can pass generational legislation that Republicans will not be able to overturn. They are clearly willing to bet his re-election to enact this legislation.
Let's hope he does pay a price for this. I'm not sure we can handle his remaining three years, much less four more in addition to that.

Ah, this absolutely warms my heart. I'd love to see it get to -25 by year end. It could happen!
How in the world are his poll numbers this high? How is this possible. People must have their heads in the sand.
The numbers are dropping like a stone. Love watching the media try to spin it - beyond humorous - shameless.
I wouldn't play golf or have a beer with him, and my standards are not high.
Couldn't agree more Herb. The guy is contemptible.
