Rasmussen: Obama at lowest Approval Index rating yet recorded

Topics: Political News and commentaries

Despite Barack Obama being in constant campaign mode and despite his non-stop speaking appearances, the Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Wednesday shows that just 22% of the nation's voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President, while forty-one percent (43%) Strongly Disapprove - giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -21. According to Rasmussen, that matches the lowest Approval Index rating yet recorded for this President.

Rasmussen found that overall, only 43% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the President's performance, and that also matches the lowest level yet recorded for this President. Fifty-six percent (56%) disapprove. In my mind, this is about what I've expected to see all along - a president who's been all suit and no substance selling his ideological agenda being ultimately rejected by a center-right nation.

Of course this is about what we'd expect out of far-Left ideologue who,
as Mike4Mike aptly notes, just three years ago was a freshman senator, elected after only one term in the Illinois House with no executive experience whatsoever and very little insider political experience - and whose only career was essentially nothing more than that of a community organizer, whose job had been to "act the outsider and stir up enough discontent to get the government to do something." In other words, he created messes that others cleaned up:

Just as Jimmy Carter had lost the right to govern by the end of his second year in office, Barack Obama seems never to have had the skills. America elected an idea, but it was a vapor, a slickly packaged but empty suit.
Nothing has changed except we're stuck with the SOB until 2012. Unfortunately America's voters got suckered-in to the "hopey-changy" act and now we're stuck with it until 2012.
