The economy stinks.
Unemployment is still over 9%.
Energy prices are sky rocketing.
Food prices are sky rocketing.
The dollar isn’t worth spit.
The deficit continues to spiral out of control.

This administration is an utter failure and yet continues to enjoy a relatively high approval.

Why?

Because a corrupt and dishonest media continues to cover for everything this guy does. Fox and talk radio can only do so much.

I work in a cubicle full of Obama’s zombies. It doesn't matter how bad it gets, they are not hearing about it on the news, so there impression of him has not changed one iota from Jan 2008. This is why his approval rating will not fall so low that he is unelectable. Too many unknowing people who get all their view of what is happening in the world from 30 minutes of evening news.

When gas was skyrocketing under Bush, the news media was reminding you of it every night. You could not escape the bad news on gas prices. Our local news would give nightly reports showing which stations had most expensive and which had the lowest price – helping consumers find cheaper stations.
Now they are completely silent.
