Right Direction or Wrong Track
22% Say U.S. Heading in Right Direction, Lowest of Obama's Presidency

Just 22% of Likely U.S. Voters say the country is heading in the right direction, the lowest level of confidence found since before President ObamaÂ’s inauguration in January 2009.
According to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey taken the week ending Sunday, March 13, 72% of voters now say the country is heading down the wrong track, also at its highest level since before the inauguration.
Confidence in the nation's current course hovered around the 30% mark for roughly a year until late October 2010 and then fell to a low of 23% in early to mid-December. But confidence began rising again at that time and hit a new high of 32% in late January.
Confidence that the country is moving in the right direction is at just 40% among Democrats, down from 59% the week before Election Day. Only 10% of Republicans and 17% of voters not affiliated with either major political party share that view.
Fifty-two percent (52%) of Democrats feel the country is heading down the wrong track, compared to 88% of GOP voters and 75% of unaffiliateds.
