But the operative numbers are the extremes: strongly approve (35%), strongly disapprove (32%). The rest is the mushy middle.
Upon inauguration, these numbers were roughly 42% and 16% respectively (the rest being the mushy middle).
Accordingly, what has happened in the past ten weeks is a precipitous (and accelerating) drop from +26% to +3% -- with the growth in disapproval coming from both the mushy middle...and Obama supporters.
From a polling standpoint, these numbers -- and their trend -- are bad news for Obama and his henchmen. And good news for us.

Yes...BUT! I don’t think Obama gives much of a damn about ratings....particularly if he can get major changes toward a US that is more socialist, more fascistic, passed into law before the US tanks around him.
If you haven’t read this....it fits whats happening tighter than OJ’s glove. I urge all to read it!
