Who would have thought that Obama would actually sink lower in the polls than Bush??

Quote:
IBD/TIPP has been ranked as the most accurate presidential election poll for the past several elections.

Obama also received his worst rating since taking office in the IBD/TIPP Presidential Leadership Index, which currently stands at 41, making his lower than President Bush's at the same point in his second term.

Obama has tried to turn the tide of negative opinion by focusing on what he calls his economic achievements. Last week, Obama said in a speech that "every single one" of his economic policies is "on the ballot this fall."

That may very well be true, since the IBD/TIPP poll found that 74% say they place a "high importance" on the economy and jobs when it comes to their choice of candidates.

But it isn't likely to help Democrats running for Congress this fall, since only 31% of the public thinks Obama is doing a good job at creating jobs and growing the economy.

It's interesting that one of the best president's in history gets such low reviews.

Liberal heads must be exploding. It must be racism! We apparently just can't stand the thought of having a black president. I remember when that excuse was used every five minutes by the Obamabots.

I thought it might get bad once people started waking up, but am a little surprised it's this bad considering our still largely compliant media and mindless cult following that's doubled down.

For the life of me, I can't imagine why anybody thought this guy would be a good President ? He had no background or experience in anything. His election to State Senator was done by unprecedented means and a Democrat judge that opened sealed court records on his opponent. Nothing he has ever done prepared him for such high office. This should serve as a lesson to voters, but I'm afraid the die has been cast.

Approval rating:

Obama low point = 41%
Bush low point = 25%

How is he lower than Bush?

I said this a thousand times but..

The sad part, the really sad part, is that the very people that voted for him are the very people's lives he destroyed through his gross incompetence. These people had such high hopes only to be in bread lines 6 years later. Most of them have woke up and I think most now realize jobs will never come back under moonbats. My he moment you put a conservative in the whitehouse you will get a real recovery. If Romney had been elected it would be 180 degrees better than Obummers economy. Like it or not business hates liberals when I comes to hiring. Now, business loves liberals when it comes to free handouts with no strings.

Comprehension problem? Where in the article does it say that?
