WASHINGTON -- President Obama's overall approval rating has sunk to a new low -- and independent voters who propelled him to the White House have gotten downright sick of the job he's doing, according to a devastating poll released yesterday.
Obama's job-approval rating has tanked to a dismal 29 percent among independents, the Marist College survey found. His disapproval rating is nearly twice as high -- 57 percent.
Obama's overall approval among all registered voters hit a new low of 44 percent, the lowest of any poll that uses people to survey voters.
The near-total loss of independents could prove catastrophic for Democrats if the trend holds through Election Day this year.

Welcome to FreeRepublic. You’ll learn a lot here.
I personally know 2 people who support Obama. One woman watches Olbermann.
The best thing of all is, the idiot is convinced that to “win” he must increase his speed and pace in the direction he is going.
It is truly sad that our first black president isn’t going to leave a decent legacy. It will seriously hurt future black possible candidates.
He is so busy giving ‘speeches’ he can’t really have time to think about what is really happening to this country or the consequences of his stance.
I think all his declarations and intentions are proscribed for him by his ultra radical staff and he just trumpets them. He is ultimately committing suicide and he doesn’t even know it.
What they saw was a Republican party tying it’s best to mimic the democrats. Don’t forget just a few months ago it gave a couple million to Scarzafarva who wound up endorsing the democrat.
Pray he continues down that course.
I sent a letter to most of my liberal relatives and friends just before the election. I hope they kept it.
McCain put me off too, but Bambi was clearly so much worse, so obviously a radical leftist in all things, there still is no comparison.
Enjoy the debate, and expect a few name callers and try not to take it personal.
How possible is it he may get few black votes than some other democrats. Clinton and Gore.
thats a good point
My “yellow dog” democrat friends need to know this. Obama, his handlers and minions are not dogs. These people are WOLVES. The Democrat Party of old has been co-opted by the progressive movement.
I was thinking the exact same thing last night, but I actually belive he will strengthen the support for conservative black candidates. He will be a taint for liberal ones.
Welcome aboard!
‘’The lowest of any POLL that uses people’’,,,,,,,What else would they use,,,,bullfrogs?
There are some brilliant and worthy blacks out there....(conservatives, of course).
Lets face it, O has not had a scintilla of the real life experience which so many of our black’s have had to endure over the past 50-60 years. Yet...some actually went to college without the affirmative action advantage....look at Walter Williams, Thomas Sowell and Alan Keyes.
No quite a few of them are bone marrow stupid.
Maybe this is a sign of the times. A couple days ago while shoveling snow my lib, nobama-supporter neighbor came over and blurted you “You were right”. He went on to discuss how nobama is an anti-American socialist/marxist. I’m, still in shock.
If true, it is comical to see the American people proven wrong again. They do not like being shown in error.
