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.

Great stuff. Takes a big person to admit they were wrong about something so important. Maybe you can fully convert him eventually.

Good points.

Better an outright socialist than a disguised one.

It couldn't be his one track chorus on obamadeathcare?

Rename, repackage, rewrite it a tad smaller, and sell another pig in a poke.

Tennessee has joined several other states in trying to pass a Health Care Freedom Act. NO COLAs for granny, retired Military or retired fed employees for 2-3 years. BIG NEW fees for Tricare for Life retired over 65 Military's secondary health ins. (DOD bill already passed, delayed but goes into effect 2011)

New Dem mantra: Woof, woof eat dog food granny....ala let them eat cake.

I told you- we’re out there. And every day we get a bit more bold and a bit less afraid of being called a racist. I would probably be surprised at how many of us are out there.

I would apologize to our neighbor’s brother- he stopped speaking to me because of our Obama sign, but he is such a hateful, mean bat that I am skipping that apology.

Who knows, Obama might be the best gift that conservatives could have dreamed of.....

Dear Leader has a 10% padding amount based on race— Democrat African Americans will always be there for him. The reverse was true for Bush, especially after the MSM’s lies about Katrina.
