People, I guess, don’t like what they see:
President Barack Obama has seen has approval ratings decline in the aftermath of his selecting pro-abortion Solicitor general Elena Kagan for the open Supreme Court position. Obama’s approval ratings are at one of their lowest points in the last month and heading back down to their health care-dominated levels.
The Rasmussen Reports daily presidential tracking poll for Thursday shows 45% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the president’s performance.
That compares with 53 percent who disapprove — giving Obama an overall -8 percentage point approval rating.
Among the most passionate voters on either side, 42 percent of voters strongly disapprove of Obama’s performance in office while just 26 percent strongly approve – a -16 point rating among the most ardent voters.
I think it might be because she’s so clearly a hack – just someone appointed to do as the left demands in Court issues. Everyone expected a mindless drone for the left out of Obama – but not, perhaps, someone so clearly drone-like.
Obama just keeps missing his chances to really make his mark on American history – to do the things he said in the campaign. There are scores of people out there – including a few “wet” Republicans – Obama could have appointed, assured a pretty liberal Justice and yet not been so clearly ideological in his action.
And as time goes on, I don’t see it even remotely dawning on Obama how out of touch he’s become.
