Obama Poll Numbers Still Falling
According to the daily Rasmussen tracking poll, Barack Obama’s approval ratings are continuing to spiral downward. Thirty-eight percent of the American people strongly disapprove of the job President Obama is doing, while 30% strongly approve. This ties his previous low of -8 on the Rasmussen Presidential Approval Index (the difference between those who strongly approve and strongly disapprove of his job performance). What’s even more interesting about these results is Obama’s total approval rating. Now, just 49% somewhat approve of the president’s performance, while 51% disapprove. This is the first time his overall approval has dipped below 50%. These numbers are averaged based on three days of polling. Two of these days were done before Obama’s national press conference Wednesday night
In a hypothetical 2012 matchup, Barack Obama leads Alaska Governor Sarah Palin but only narrowly at 48%-to-42%. Meanwhile, the president is tied with former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney at 45% each.
Republicans Take Four-Point Lead on Generic Ballot: In Rasmussen’s weekly question on control of Congress for 2010, Republicans now lead Democrats by 42%-to-38% -- the highest level of support Rasmussen has measured for the GOP in more than two years.

I work at a drug rehab and don't get away to often, when Barrack Obama became president I was devastated. I am a Democrat but I did not, however, vote this way. I haven't approved of anything his administration has done thus far.
I wonder how long this will go before the messiah creates or exploits a crisis to distract the folks and get his numbers up again?
Great post Bill! I just wrote one on this too!
Those 38% need to wake up.
Not enough yet to stop the House...looks like Princess Pelosi is bent on sending the insane House bill to the floor next week, even if the Blue Dogs Dems vow to vote against it. These clowns are not going to give up. Only hope is to stall this thing until after the 2010 elections and hope that enough of these progressive/socialist dems get voted out of office.
Please let me wake up and and find that the Obama presidency is just a bad, bad dream. I want my beautiful America back. Jeanette Verheul
