Obama approval ratings down
Thursday, 9 July 2009 17:04

US President Barack Obama has seen his approval ratings tumble in a new poll.

The poll, published today by news channel CNN, put President Obama's overall job approval rating at 61%, down from 76% in February.

More than one third of respondents (37%) said they disapprove of how the new US leader is doing his job.

70% said Mr Obama is 'a strong and decisive leader,' down from 80% in February, while just 53% said he has a 'clear plan for solving the nation's problems,' down from 64%.

Obama will be a one-term president if he stays with these big-government spending programs. The American people don't want that. His health care plan sounds like a disaster in the making. Democrats never learn.

I think many who were on the fence with him are getting pissed. His hardcore fans will approve no matter what. Take those guys wearing Obama t-shirts for example.

I'm not surprised, but it is unfortunate....

There was so much wrong with the nation when Obama took office, I don't think any person could have possibly stood a chance of turning things around in the first 6 months. I think you'd have to be exceptional to turn things around in 4 years...

It was kind of inevitable that any president that took office would have been able to meet the demands of Americans at this time, but I always hoped I would be proven wrong...

With that said, he still has 3 and a half years to go to do his job and we should ALL cross our fingers that his plans work.

I still maintain that no president or presidential candidate would have done any better than Barack Obama has to date, which is not an assault against anyone, just a realization of how much the cards were stacked against whoever won.

As long as you admit that the left is as mad at him as the right is. Our anger is just not crazy. lol

Wave your wildsigns high!!

Did anybody think he was going to get in there and perform miracles? It's just not gonna turn around over night. I hope he gets it turned around quickly, not because I've turned Democrat, but for the sake of this country and I need to get called back to my job!

imo he's caved on some important issues like not taxing heralth care benefits and on the issue of warrantless wiretapping i'm still glad he's not the other guy though

It's not surprising. The guy talked so much shit during his campaign, he was bound to come clean, at least to some degree. So sad how people just bowed down to this guy and accepted him as their savior.

Are you happy. Have you finally proven your point? Obama, in your estimation, will become the absolute ruin of the country, and you were right. George Bush and Cronies had it right all along, satisfied now?
