Obama Negative approval numbers, Rasmussen daily Presidential Tracking Poll

Has Someone Stolen Barack Obama’s Magical Pipe?

Without a magical pipe to lure rats and children, even the Pied Piper would be vulnerable and helpless.

Just five months ago, President Barack Obama looked invincible, beyond reproach. Now the president is floundering about like Superman without a defense against Kryptonite.

As reported at Rasmussen.com, in part: http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_ ... cking_poll

“The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Sunday shows that 32% of the nation’s voters now Strongly Approve of the way Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Thirty-four percent (34%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -2. That’s the President’s lowest rating to date and the first time the Presidential Approval Index has fallen below zero for Obama.

“Sixty percent (60%) of Democrats Strongly Approve of the President’s performance but only 8% of Republicans share that view. Sixty-one percent (61%) of Republicans Strongly Disapprove.

The Presidential Approval Index is calculated by subtracting the number who Strongly Disapprove from the number who Strongly Approve. â€
