Obama Hits Lowest Approval Mark
The Woodward Report ^
| February 8, 2010

Independent voters see Pres. Obama in a negative light by a nearly 2-1 margin, according to a new Marist College survey, while almost half of voters say he has failed to meet their expectations.
The poll, conducted Feb. 1-3, showed just 44% of registered voters approving of Obama's job as president. 47% disapprove. But among indie voters, Obama's approval rating sits at a terrible 29%, while his disapproval rating is at 57%.
Obama's 44% job approval rating is the lowest he has scored in any non-internet poll since moving into the WH, according to a review of data compiled by Pollster.com.
And while GOPers strive to avoid attacking Obama personally, for fear of offending voters who see him in a favorable light personally, even that aura of invincibility is wearing off. Independent voters view Obama negatively, too, by a 39% favorable to 52% unfavorable margin. All registered voters still see Obama favorably by a 50%-44% margin, but that's down 5 points in just 2 months...

The Stupid Party doesn't see that Obama is well on the way towards becoming as unpopular as Bush. Fewer and fewer people like him, The only thing keeping him propped up in the 40s are those overwhelming ratings from Democrats.

...almost half of voters say he has failed to meet their expectations. Sadly, Obama has met all of my expectations. I hate being right.

Barky is gonna get such a kick in the shins come November, you'll think his teleprompter is in overdrive...

You make a good point about the Dems support. When Bush’s numbers tanked the MSM made little of no mention that Republicans and conservatives were just a disapproving of W as the left, though for different reasons. The Dems are sticking to Obama because he’s a Dem and that means more than principle. Most Dems truly are yellow dogs.

THE GIG IS UP ZERO.
People are on to you.
But don’t worry....
November is coming.
