The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Tuesday shows that 30% of the nation's voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Forty-one percent (41%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -11 (see trends).

Thx!
The total disapproval is -8, NOT -19.
Yeah, you can’t add those two.
The -8 encompasses the -11.
I stand corrected!
I was up all night worrying about this. Thank God for ABC!
Obama is pro-bike helmets, but does not wear one for family ride
Never has there been so much grace given to such an idiot, and his fall will be spectacular. Too bad the nation is going to have to go over a cliff before slug heads who voted for this will wake up.
-11bama's total approval index has only reached -5 three times, all recently: 8/13, 8/16 and 8/30. BUT, then on 8/31 it leaped over -6 to land on -7%. And today, it hits -8%.
Looking at its acceleration from 8/29, it went down by 5 points (to -5), then by 2 points (to -7) and then by another point (to -8), a drop of 8 points in just three days.
Perhaps this is related to being at the end of summer, with changes at hand: vacations ending, kids back in school, -11bama tanking.
45% approve
53% disapprove
All-time low
It’s definitely long past time to assert the 10th amendment
and make the socialist supporting states flounder in their own morass while leaving the capitalist/free states to prosper free of the weight of bad policy.
A little dose of reality really helps people get back on the right track.
It’s better than that. a) Zogs has the approval even lower, at 42%; and b) Ras’s “strongly disapprove” is getting perilously close to the “total approve,” and once those two lines cross, I don’t see how zero ever gets them back.
With the way things are going, hopefully, he will be at -19 before long.
There is a large and growing base of hard counter-support to Obama. I never imagined it would reach 40% in a year, much less seven months.
I’m betting a national emergency will surprise us all and it will generate demands to rally around the president. I also predict that the President will be blamed for said national emergency...
Both the left and right are beginning to judge him by his actions, instead of his words, and this is significant, because no words can return his popularity, only actions.
