Today's result.

Overall, 47% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the President's performance. That’s the lowest level of total approval yet recorded. The President’s ratings first fell below 50% just a few weeks ago on July 25. Fifty-two percent (52%) now disapprove.
President Bush was at 56% in August of 2001

Fact of life, opinions vary. Since Rasmussen is the premiere polling site, I believe I will take their word for it.

It seems to be an undisputed fact (no matter which pollmaster you prefer) that BO's approval rating is falling.

I'm pretty sure Rasmussen does essentially automated calls, without any human interaction, so I'll bet they have a very high hang-up rate.

I think regardless of which poll you're watching, his numbers are going to continue to decline until there's a significant upturn in the economy. Like Bill Clinton said, "It's the economy, stupid!" President Obama acknowledged early on that if he hadn't fixed the economy by the end of his first term, he wouldn't get re-elected. Personally, I think that's a good thing since it will motivate him to get the situation under control.

But will it motivate him to look beyond his inner circle for advice? First step would be to lower the corporate tax rate. He refuses to do this. Until he realizes that when it comes to taxes "less is more" then we will get nowhere in the quest to create new jobs and revive some old ones that got dumped in the economic downturn.

Like that "most reliable" polling experts Scientific American, huh?

Now, who was it that was saying the conservatives outnumber the liberals on this site?
