Obama Sinking in Virginia

Virginia voters' attitudes about Barack Obama's job performance have soured, according to results of a Democratic polling outfit's recent survey which suggests more people now rate the president negatively.

Public Policy Polling found that 48 percent of Virginia voters disapprove of Obama's job performance, while 47 percent approve of it.

While that's a slim difference, it represents a significant decline from the 51-44 percent positive margin PPP reported Obama had after Osama bin Laden's death.

Real Clear Politics
Kaine edges Allen, 46 percent to 43 percent, among registered Virginia voters surveyed by Public Policy Polling (D). The difference between the two candidates, however, is within the poll's margin of error. Both candidates have identical support (87 percent) from their political respective bases, but Kaine leads Allen among independents by 11 points.
