Dear Leader's approval continues to tank among likely voters, as shown by Rasmussen's daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Monday with just twenty-four percent (24%) of the nation's voters Strongly Approving of the way Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Forty-one percent (41%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -17:
