Registered voters nationally are not satisfied with how President Barack Obama is handling the nation’s economy. According to this McClatchy-Marist Poll, four in ten voters — 40% — approve of how the president is dealing with the country’s economy while nearly six in ten — 57% — disapprove. Only 3% are unsure. Mr. Obama’s approval rating on the economy is the lowest of his presidency. His previous low was last September when just 41% gave him a thumbs-up on the issue.

Thats it?!?!? We are HOSED!
the 40% must be unions, students, faculty, etc.
The 40% approvals and the 3% not sure are dumper then a sack a rocks. This country really has some serious mental and knowledge problems. Perhaps the 40% are all on welfare and other government subsidy’s. In that case your talkin about the it’s all about me types.
Unless Obama magically stops being black, it's not going to get much worse for him, at least with respect to public polling. His floor is probably in the low-40s or very high 30s. It's a bit unprecedented in modern politics, really.
That's why the next election is still going to be tough for Republicans, who at best can only hope that a bad economy will depress those black and Latino voters, even though those voters won't entirely abandon him in the polls.
We would be in the middle of a fairly good recovery if he did nothing at all.
But yet we are told by the Left and the Right that Obama is a lock for re-election in 2012.
I am becoming more convinced than ever that almost everything we read in the news is made-up propaganda.
the 40% could also just be plain old morons
..government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.

Obama remains unbeatable in 2012. No Rep can beat him.
You are most likely correct. The people getting handouts and the entitlement generation have foisted this plague upon the backs of the hardworking people. As they sow, so shall they reap; by the time all of us baby boomers are dead, the burden of the debt will be so unbearable, they’ll all be wondering what happened.
yes,
no doubt.
This all comes down to a lack of knowledge and/or interest in economics and history. That’s it. They want bling, fast food, liquor and porn/cable. That’s all these 40% want or require.
your right, no Republican can, but a CONSERVATIVE can.
Yep, and the rest of them are Communists/Marxists like himself.
