I'll be consistent. Polls at this stage are meaningless except to show that the "people" aren't too pleased with what has happened so far. Comparisons to Reagan are not legitimate. I lived through that period and while the stats were bad on the economy, there was a definite sense that Reagan was leading. That he was taking charge and doing something radical to get rid of the "malaise" that Carter was impotent to improve with 3 years of stagflation.
Obama is the opposite. He does anything but lead. He finger points, he's petty and his administration is adrift. The people sense that and they don't like it. He is certainly capable of correcting it, if he chooses. We'll see what he does.
I followed you until you got to the "He is certainly capable of correcting it..." part.
He is incompetent, arrogant, capable only of lying, delegating authority to other Marxists and blaming others for everything that has ever or will ever happen. He is the most worthless POTUS in history...and by far the most damaging ever to this once great country.
His approval rating is still entirely too high....solely because of the Obama Zombies that still think he hung the moon.
