Public support for President Barack Obama remains low in the United States, a new Angus Reid Public Opinion poll has found.
In the online survey of a representative national sample of 1,031 American adults, 40 per cent of respondents (unchanged since September) approve of Obama’s performance as president, while 52 per cent (-1) disapprove.
Obama is unable to reach the 50 per cent mark on approval in any of the country’s four main regions, getting his best numbers in the West (47%). One third of Americans (34%) strongly disapprove of the president’s performance, while 13 per cent strongly approve.

Goodbye Socialist: Obama Losing to Generic Republican by 5 pts

 

Notice the large 18 percent undecided vote and remember that the undecided usually break against the incumbent. This means Obama would probably lose the 2012 election by more than he won the 2008 election.

Pelosi's Horrific Reign Over

Image by TalkMediaNews via FlickrHer steely manner and the progressive policies she championed made her a favorite target for resurgent Republicans nationwide. Pelosi's face appeared in more GOP attack ads than any other Democrat, including President Obama.
