Fox News poll finds Obamas overall job approval rating dropped to a new low of 43 percent -- and finds by a 54 to 39 percent margin, American voters oppose the new health care law.
Two weeks after President Obama signed the new health care bill, opposition to it remains strong. In addition, the presidents legislative victory did not help his job approval rating, which hit a new low in a Fox News poll released Thursday.
The poll also finds more voters would punish rather than reward incumbents who voted for the health care bill, and that the Democratic win did nothing to energize the party faithful for the midterms.
President Obamas overall job approval rating dropped to a new low of 43 percent. Nearly half -- 48 percent -- disapprove. In mid-March, it was 46-48 percent. His current rating among Democrats (80 percent) and independents (38 percent) are among his lowest ratings with these groups. He is now in single digits among Republicans (7 percent). By comparison, former President George W. Bushs approval among Democrats went as low as 4 percent.
The poll finds by a 54 to 39 percent margin, American voters oppose the new health care law. Just prior to the bills passage, 55 percent opposed, while 35 percent favored the overhaul.

Much more good news found in the article -- brought to you by the liberal (Boston, Philly and San Francisco based) pollsters.
Enjoy.
I submit that there is probably a sizeable percentage who do not want to admit they disapprove of Obama because they're afraid of being called a "racist."
Which means 43% of Americans are idiots.
Even his lying cabal of media whores can’t save him.
He’s rather be a good president for one term than a bad president for two terms.
He’s logic challenged and doesn’t comprehend the difference between good and bad, but other than that . . .
He’s = He’d
In the first paragraph.
(Sheesh. My corrections need to be corrected today.)
I submit a good portion of the approving 43% are racists who would approve of Obama no matter what he does, because of his skin color.
