Obama Goes Upside Down in Gallup Tracking
Posted by Tom Bevan | Email This | Permalink | Email Author
A rather dramatic swing in the Gallup Daily Tracking poll has put President Obama's job rating upside down for the first time, with more Americans now disapproving of job he's doing than approving. According to today's numbers, which represent a rolling average of surveys taken over the past three days, 47% say they disapprove of Obama while 46% approve. That's a net five-point change from yesterday's reading of 48% approve and 44% disapprove, which is a pretty substantial move for a tracking poll. It means the President probably suffered a combination of a good day of polling dropping off the back end of the rolling average while adding a bad day of polling to the front end.

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Wednesday shows that 24% of the nation's voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Forty-two percent (42%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -18 (see trends).
Among men, 19% Strongly Approve and 42% Strongly Disapprove. Among women, 29% Strongly Approve and 41% Strongly Disapprove.
Republicans have opened up a ten-point lead over Democrats on the Generic Congressional Ballot. In a three-way generic ballot test, it’s Democrats 34%, Republicans 27%, and the Tea Party at 21%. However, most Tea Party supporters would vote for the Republican if the GOP candidate was the only one with a chance to win.
The Presidential Approval Index is calculated by subtracting the number who Strongly Disapprove from the number who Strongly Approve. It is updated daily at 9:30 a.m. Eastern (sign up for free daily e-mail update). Updates are also available on Twitter and Facebook.
Overall, 44% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the President's performance. Fifty-five percent (55%) disapprove.
Hey............all I got to say is w00t!!!!!!! Thank God Americans have fully woken up to how uber radical this president is. That it has happened within 13 months is shocking...............even to me.
Most compelling is, whats going to happen to these polls following the HealthCare debate?? Either way, he drops more the way I see it. If it fails, he loses some of the k00k support. If he wins, he loses more independents who think this bill is a corrupt farce.
