Obama approval index falls to -15

Rasmussen reports Obama's Presidential Approval Index fell to -15. Another record low.

Rasmussen's Obama Approval Index has now been in negative double digits for nine straight days. Last week the index stood at the previous record low, -14, for three consecutive days.

According to Rasmussen, support for the Democrats' Obamacare has fallen to a new low of 38%. Sixty percent of voters believe passage of the bill will lead to higher health care costs.

 Rasmussen Reports presidential job approval ratings are based upon a sample of likely voters, rather than samples of all adults. Obama’s numbers are always several points higher in a poll of adults rather than likely voters because some of Obama's most enthusiastic supporters, such as young adults, are less likely to turn out to vote.

It's not just Rasmussen, Gallup, Quinnipiac, and Hawkeye all find Obama's approval to be 48%.

In the following CBS video, John Dickerson discusses Obama's falling approval rating:

As we have said before, the more voters find out about President Obama, the less they care for him and his radically liberal policies.

    Don't count President Obama out just yet. Personality, not performance, seems to drive modern American politics. Now, if the Daily Show and SNL turn against him, then game over . . .

    What happened? The teabaggers came to town and a seat which had been in Republican hands since the 19th century is now held by a Democrat who voted for healthcare reform. Looks like change to me.

    Didn't see that coming! Indeed, we Americans are an inpatient bunch. I guess the folks who voted in this "change" and thought they were going to "get their mortages paid and gas put in their tanks" are still waiting for that "change" to show up in their pocketbooks. But then again, drones will be drones. The life expectancy of a drone is about ninety days.

    There is no one left on this planet now or ever who will be accepted as president of this country... Jesus Christ himself could be president and us Americans (utilizing the media.. aka "the devil") would find a way to justify his demise. The problem isn't with this government or the president it's the way we are so eager to sell ourselves out at any cost. We're so smart...

    If you look at the graph the results show those who strongly approve and those who strongly approve. The word I have a problem with is STRONGLY. I question the results of a poll that asks only for extreme opinions. If you ask extreme questions you will get extreme results. How about a search for reality instead of headllines.

    I wonder how we put up with all this kind of Crap. Congress is spending like this is all their money and never going to end. I just wish the country doesn't go bankrupt (May be this was the change he was referring to when he was campaigning).

    Not that anyone in the MSN would ever share pretend to care, any guess what the most reviled President in the history of humanity's approval ratings was 10 short monthis into his first "gravitas-less" term? For the answer, shove a probe up Katie Couric's backside
