Daily Presidential Tracking Poll Thursday, January 21, 2010 Email to a Friend ShareThisAdvertisement The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows that 27% of the nation's voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Forty-two percent (42%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -15 (see trends).

Forty-seven percent (47%) of voters nationwide give the President poor marks for his handling of the health care issue. Voters strongly oppose an excise tax on “Cadillac” health insurance plans to help cover the cost of that plan. Opposition rises even higher for a plan that would exempt union members from the excise tax.

Dropped 3 points in one day on a rolling average....probably will still be going down on Friday.

I hope Mr. Brown gets to attend the State of the Union :).

Could be with the “lemming effect”. Once people (without independent thinking skills) perceive him as “unliked” they will jump on the band wagon and not like him too. I am convinced it was where half of Bush’s negative numbers came from.

What did Rasmussen do? Zero got a Haiti bump. It’s going away now. He’ll be back around -20 next week.

POTUS Barack Hussein Obama’s poll numbers are going to get dramatically worse. The unemployment numbers from last week rose an unexpectedly 36,000. Fact is, the communist, facist POTUS does not have a clue about the American economy and is purposely trying to destroy it. Ladies and gentlemen, it is now time to force POTUS Barack Hussein Obama to resign or impeach him and his socialist, communist, facist ilk called the Democrat Party!!!! He will have something to do, he can go back to the church of America hater, Rev. Jeremiah Wright where he feels comfortable with his America hating lock-steppers. Shucks he and Michelle miss the Racist Reverend Wright big time. The POTUS and his family have not found any other church to worship in other the the Reverend Wright’s hate factory!!!

I think people are mad at Ras because he said he thought it was too close to call in Mass, and didn’t put up a prediction. Rasmussen is alright.

I was thinking the same thing, although from a slightly different angle: Now that Massachusetts liberals have pointed out that the emperor has no clothes they've given the green light for others to do likewise.
