Rasmussen Report
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Sunday shows that 30% of the nation’s voters 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 (see trends).
Today is the first time in nearly three weeks that the Approval Index has fallen to negative double digits. Check out our review of last week’s key polls to see “What They Told Us.”
“What They Told Us.”
Few nations are as generous with their time and money as the United States, but right now Americans are a suspicious bunch.
Sixty-six percent (66%) of voters nationwide say they’re at least somewhat angry about the current policies of the federal government. Thirty-six percent (36%) are Very Angry.
Despite the high level of political anger last year that helped fuel President Obama’s election, 59% say the current level of political anger in the country is higher than it was when George W. Bush was president.
A lot of that anger is directed at the people who are spending billions and billion of dollars of taxpayer money. That helps explain why members of Congress have now surpassed corporate CEOs to hold the least favorably regarded profession in the country.
Just 16% of voters give Congress good or excellent ratings now that it’s back from a rough-and-tumble August recess. That’s down seven points from its highest rating of 2009, reached in late May. Fifty-three (53%) percent say Congress is doing a poor job.
Obama’s Approval Index ratings remain in negative territory as well in the Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll.
The president turned his considerable diplomatic skills to the international front for much of this past week. While world leaders were charmed by and in general agreement with Obama, his fellow countrymen were less obliging.
But then voters have expressed growing unease with the president’s handling of national security issues in recent weeks.
Wild Thing’s comment…….
Rasmussen was the most accurate pollster for the last election, I weigh his tracking poll pretty heavily. It could be because Rasmussen counts only “likely voters” instead of all adults of voting age, as most other polls do. Supposedly, this is why he has beem more accurate in the past few years.
Obama will continue to test new lows the more he speaks and maintains a white knuckle grip to his radical left-wing ideology.
“maintains a white knuckle grip”
Waaaah! Racist!
Watch what Hillary Clinton does. When she leaves the Administration, for whatever personal reason she cooks up, we will know the game is up.
Indeed, I never thought I would feel sorry for that shrew Hillary, but I do. If you study the candidate nomination race and process in 2008, it is pretty clear that she was rooked badly out of the nomination that was rightfully hers, and given discontent with the Busyrovie shortcomings, probably out of the Presidency as well.
The dems are telling the Bluedogs, they got to vote for Health Care. The reason the dems lost in 94 was because ‘they’ didn’t get Health Care done. Every last Bluedog that votes for this should get the axe.
He numbers continue to fall, wonder why! This man, this fool does nothing but fly around in Air Force One which he is fast turning it into something resembling that elongated black car with the fur-lined seats of a black Chicago pimp. And like that pimp he never works, but leaves that to his field hands, his Tsars, while he plays to the MSM and pimps whitey on the street conners of the world. Yes Obama has become America’s “Pimp-in-Chief”!
Typical Liberal Dupe, hahahaha actually
that never came to mind when I said it.
Curmudgeon, I felt sorry for her
when Obama stole votes from her during
the campaign and they gave Obama Florida
and Mich. it was the principle of the thing
not because I like her, but to do that to
anyone in our country is wrong big time.
Plus when Kennedy the jerk right from the
beginning switched from being a Clinton
person to all out for the commie Obama.
That must have cut deep to Bill and Hillary.
Mark, I agree, I hope the Townhalls taught
a few of the Blue Dogs they better wake up
and see they can be voted out.
There were some dem voters at those
Townhall meetings and I was so glad it showed
how across the board socialized medicine is
not wanted.
Ron, he sure is and that is a good name for
him.
