Poll Watch: Obama Total Approval Hits All Time Low

August 13, 2009 /


President Obama’s latest poll numbers are in the tank, according to Rasmussen.

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows that 29% of the nation’s voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Thirty-seven percent (37%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -8.

Overall, 47% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the President’s performance. That’s the lowest level of total approval yet recorded. The President’s ratings first fell below 50% just a few weeks ago on July 25. Fifty-two percent (52%) now disapprove.

The bloom has come off the Obama rose – big time.

Exit question:Will the White House now fight the trend and roll the dice with Obamacare or will they retrench?

    Flap, The Joker’s numbers could drop to single digits (in other words, worse than Bush 43’s worst of the worst, but matching Congress in 2007-08, and probably ’09 as well) and his worshipers would still insist he’s Teh Greatest. President. EVAH!!!!!

    Obama Derangement Syndrome seems to operate differently from Bush Derangement Syndrome, but as it turns out both afflict the same people.
