The President’s job approval numbers are well under 60%, with just over a year left until the election

Doom and Gloom. Sigh!

BTW, anyone recall what BJC's approval numbers were at the same point in his first term?

From this link.

Former President Reagan was re-elected in a landslide with a 58% job approval. Former President Clinton won re-election overwhelmingly with a 54% job approval. No president has been defeated with a job approval above 50%.

About 46%, as of the fall of 1995. This figure comes from a Roll Call article of September 9, 2003 and is still available online here (if not at Roll Call's site): http://www.rnc.org/Newsroom/RNCResearch/pollnumbers091003.htm
