Brain -> Lowest ever: Obama job approval sinks to 39% as even Democrats support melts away (11/24/2010 7:29:43 PM)

In my opinion, I think he's going to learn the hard way that sometimes people do cut off their nose to spite their face. What I mean by that is he hasn't delivered sufficiently on the change he promised when he could have. He didn't deliver because he didn't want to not because he couldn't.
The public option is just one example of many. The majority of Americans by a wide margin wanted a public option. Many Republicans wanted a public option but he didn't lift a finger to provide it. And now he's telling us malarkey that we have to keep working harder if we want progress. He thinks were too stupid to believe that he had a chance to enact the public option. He wants us to believe that it was just too hard to do and had nothing to do with his effort. Unfortunately for him people are not buying it and he's going to pay a price unless he admits he made mistakes and he's going to recommit to the change he promised.
Lowest ever: Obama job approval sinks to 39%, as even Democrats' support melts away
President Obama has passed the Big 4-0 -- going the wrong way.
Turns out voters were not simply satisfied to spank the Democrat and his party in the Nov. 2 midterm elections with historic losses in the House of Representatives.
Obama's job approval rating as calculated by the Zogby Poll has now sunk to 39%, a new low for his 22-month presidency that began with so much hope and excitement and poll numbers up around 70. As recently as Sept. 20, his job approval was 49%.
A whopping 60% now disapprove of his job, up from 51% disapproval Sept. 20.
Obama now trails in hypothetical 2012 matchups against Republicans Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich and the next Bush, Jeb.
And, oh, my! Lookee here! Obama has even fallen into a statistical tie with none other than Sarah Palin, the former Alaska governor.
