Obama's approval rating fell 5% in less than a month. Not good! All the promises of change and what not are starting to sound more like empty campaign rhetoric. I guess, people are starting to realize that they were taken for a ride.

Bill Clinton had the highest end of term approval rating in modern history. Obama maintains anywhere near that level, re-election is assured and the already irrelevant GOP will sink even lower.

Wow he's tanking?

Views of Obama as a person have also dipped. Today 68 percent have a favorable opinion of him and 25 percent unfavorable. Last month Obama had his highest favorable rating to date when 76 percent of Americans said they had a positive opinion and 15 percent unfavorable (13-14 Jan 2009). His average favorable rating for the last six months is 59 percent, with the lowest being 56 percent in October 2008.
Here again, most of the change in Obama's favorable rating comes from Republicans and a smaller change among independents.

Please stop taking Fox News so seriously. They wouldn't know anything about objective reporting if it jumped up and slapped them across the face. Rupert Murdoch is hardly likely to be backing a Democratic President.
