Default Approval of Republican-led Congress falls to 12%; Tea Party approval down to 28%
As I've noted plenty of times over the past three years, President Obama's got plenty of challenges in front of him, but as the American people assess the landscape, they seem to be saying pretty clearly and consistently that while their affinity for the Obama agenda has weakened, any love for Republican options has weakened even more.

In other words, the only thing worse that what we have today would be more Republicans in Washington.

The Hill: http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefi...ll-on-congress

Americans are increasingly blaming Republicans for congressional gridlock. While 68 percent disapprove of congressional Democrats, 75 percent disapprove of congressional Republicans. And 50 percent of the country strongly disapproves of Republicans in Congress, up from just 39 percent in June.

Only 29 percent of those polled have a favorable view of Boehner; the Republican leader won just a fifth of independent support.

Among the most troubling signs in the poll for congressional Republicans was the sentiment that voters were holding their own congressmen accountable, rather than just the Congress as a whole.

Traditionally, pollsters find that while Congresses might suffer bouts of unpopularity, most people continue to support their own representatives. But the AP-GfK poll showed that only 38 percent want to see their member of Congress reelected — a tough sentiment for House Republicans who are defending their majority in that chamber.

Like a rock...dropping, that is. Heckuva job, Barry.

Dimwitted George W. Bush's lowest level in his first term was 46%. Barry's still got 1.3 years left in his.

Gallup tracks daily the percentage of Americans who approve or disapprove of the job Barack Obama is doing as president. Results are based on telephone interviews with approximately 1,500 national adults; Margin of error is ±3 percentage points.

The dimwit (your words, not mine) fabricated a war to pad his numbers. You may take pride in that. I don't.
