Uh-huh. Where is all this disapproval and angst coming from? Could it be from the failed stimulus or the realization that obama and the dems are trying to feed us a crap sandwich in the form of UHC?

I think people have accepted that the democrats, with their completely insane and corrupt leadership, are every bit as bad, or even worse, than republicans.
Third party, anyone?

(CBS) President Obama's approval rating on health care has dropped six points since July to 40 percent, and now more Americans, 47 percent, disapprove of his handling of health care, according to a new CBS News poll taken between Aug 27 - 31.

WASHINGTON (CNN) — A majority of independent voters disapprove of how Barack Obama's handling his job as president, according to a new national poll.

"Obama won a majority of the vote among independents last year, and that helped put him in the White House," says CNN Polling Director Keating Holland. "Losing their support makes it more difficult for Obama to govern from the center."
The trend is real - all the polls say basically the same thing.

People are getting sick of both parties. This blame game they are playing and then doing the exact samething is old.

Low enough that congress will change hands in 2010.

As soon as a polling group becomes partisan and skews its polls for political reasons, they lose all credibility and they are toast.
