Fastest loss of credibility ever.
“WASHINGTON — The public’s confidence in President Obama’s ability to handle the economy is eroding amid concern about higher federal spending and expanding government power, a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll finds — a development that could complicate his efforts to push a health care plan through Congress in the next few weeks.
In the survey, taken Friday through Sunday, Americans by 49%-47% disapprove of his handling of the economy, and by 44%-50% disapprove of his handling of health care.
THE OVAL: Obama on health care
His overall approval rating was 55%, the lowest of his young presidency. That puts Obama 10th among the 12 post-World War II presidents at this point in their tenures. When he took office, he ranked 7th.”
He’s done. He’ll go back to the airwaves tomorrow night and tell people the same old tired story he told the last time but the fact of the matter is that even less people will watch it than the last time.
Interestingly enough while Americans do not trust him on health care on the economy, there is one group they do over him.
“The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that voters trust the GOP more on economic issues 46% to 41%, showing little change from the six-point lead the party held last month. This is just the second time in over two years of polling the GOP has held the advantage on economic issues. The parties were close on the issue in May, with the Democrats holding a one-point lead. Voters not affiliated with either party trust Republicans more to handle the economy by a 46% to 32% margin.”
The importance of this cannot be over emphasized. We are well on our way to victories in 2010 and 2012, just continue with our return to a core conservative message.
America will respond.
