As expected, most Democrats strongly approve (52%) and most Republicans strongly disapprove (68%). The continuing problem for the President is that only 16% of independents strongly approve and 51% strongly disapprove.
Fifty-three percent (53%) of voters worry that the federal government will do too much when it comes to reacting to the nation’s financial problems. That’s up seven points since President Obama took office.
Overall, 45% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the President's performance. That matches the lowest level of total approval yet measured for this president. Eighty-one percent (81%) of Democrats approve as do 33% of unaffiliated voters. Eighty-three percent (83%) of Republicans disapprove. Among all voters, 54% now disapprove.
Part of the reason for the drop in the President's approval rating is ObamacarebSupport for the health care plan proposed by the President and Congressional Democrats has fallen to a new low of 38%.
During the election Barack Obama forged what seemed like an intimate connection to his supporters. Clearly that connection is lost.
As the Righteous Brothers once sang:
You've lost that lovin' feeling,
Whoa, that lovin' feeling,
You've lost that lovin' feeling,
Now it's gone...gone...gone...wooooooh.
