10 things you need to know today: March 5, 2013 - The Week2. OBAMA'S APPROVAL RATING SINKS
President Obama's jobs approval rating tumbled to its lowest level in Gallup's three-day average since his November re-election. In the three-day period ending March 2, Obama had the approval of 46 percent of those polled. That was down from 53 percent a week earlier. The decline came as Obama and Congress failed to strike a last-minute deal to replace the $85 billion in across-the-board spending cuts known as the sequester, and the reductions began kicking in as scheduled. Obama's disapproval rating also changed dramatically, rising to 46 percent from 40 percent a week earlier. [Politico]

Yes it is and as I pointed out after clicking on the RCP link only two of the seven polls they used for that average has been updated since the sequester went into effect Gallup which has Obama with a 49% approval and Rasmussen with 51% approval. Wouldn't it be somewhat hard to get a accurate reading on Obama's approval rating given that?Liar his approval rate has droped to 46 precent.. as of today10 things you need to know today: March 5, 2013 - The Week2.

The OP provided a link to RCP, which is an average of multiple polls while you provided a link to a single poll (a poll, I might add, that predicted Romney would win). You should apologize.

Obama Approval Steady at 51% - Cons know what that means!

What does that have to do with what I said? The OP isn't "lying" as claimed in the post I responded to.

I'm simply pointing out the facts the OP left out claiming that the Republicans will be blamed for the sequester because Obama has a 51% approval according to RCP is questionable at best and false at worst. When the other polls are updated now that the sequester has gone into effect and they still average out to Obama have a 50% approval rating the point might be valid right now it's not and as I have also pointed out only a week or so ago again before the sequester went into effect the left were hyping Obama having a 55% approval rating. So with Obama having a 55% approval before the sequester and now a 50% approval with the limited updated RCP polls does that really support the OP contention that Republicans will be blamed for the sequester?
