Well, his “strongly disapprove” number is getting to be a bit like President Bush’s…and without the relentless, slanderous negativity. Obama is doing it all on his own:
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Monday shows that 30% of the nation’s voters now Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Forty percent (40%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -10. Yesterday and today are the only time that Obama’s Approval Index ratings have fallen to double digits in negative territory.
Of course, it was a really bad week for Obama – so, he’s bound to climb back up…but once someone gets “strongly disapprove” about someone, its highly unlikely that person will ever, say, vote to re-elect. We’ll just have to see how this plays out over time.
