Overall, 49% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the
President's performance. Today marks the first time his overall
approval rating has ever fallen below 50% among Likely Voters
nationwide. Fifty-one percent (51%) disapprove.

Normal. I don't know many presidents that keep a high approval rating too long..

This is deeply unsurprising, Obama is faced with one of the worst economic situations any president could deal with. His plans were pretty much retarded, but its doubtful that even better economic policies would have worked any better.

HIs plans aren't retarded. There is just alot of retards out there spreading misinformation about the countries current situation. If America goes down the toilet from Republicans running it, it won't bother me too much. I have no problem adjusting to different cultures and I learn foreign languages fairly easily so, its not like I can't move somewhere else. I always wanted to live in Japan..

Not necessarily. Most of the economists I've talked to pretty much say whatever he could've done within the realm of possibility would have been equally ineffective and the best thing would've just been to project a reassuring front and done nothing.

Explain? I hope your reasoning isn't Sean Hannity said so....Or because the Debt will go up, because the deficit we have has been around for awhile. I am sure he has said several times now that they have that under control (which they do). I also hope your explanation won't be about a Healthcare bill that is still a proposal that is being worked on and refined.
