I am encouraged because this is a Gallup poll - which is usually biased toward the left. Further, looking at the poll, it was of adults - which means among registered voters it is even lower and among likely voters it must be in the mid-30's.

That said - the election is not for 18 months, the GOP has a way of shooting themselves in the foot and the press has not begun a President Obama full-court press, yet. Also, if the economy recovers even a little, his numbers could go back to re-elect levels. And the economy will probably get better (the US economy has a habit of recovering despite the worst efforts of a president).

I don’t think so this time. There is no real recovery and everything I see points toward further collapse.
