Obama Below 50% Approval Across The Board

Polling is a snapshot, but it is also all in how the question is asked. Either way, Obama is finding his approval slipping to below 50% across the board.

CBS/NY Times 50% Approve 39% Disapprove
IPSOS/McClatch 49% Approve 49% Disapprove
Rasmussen 48% Approve 52% Disapprove
Gallup 50% Approve 45% Disapprove
Bloomberg 54% Approve 41% Disapprove
Marist 46% Approve 44% Disapprove
Quinnipiac 46% Approve 44% Disapprove

Bloomberg must have talked to many more Democrats as their polling numbers don't match into the trend.

Obama is in trouble as he is rolling out more and more. In the past week he has increased Troops in Afghanistan, Received his Nobel Prize, Health Care is Closer to Passing and he is pushing for more spending to create jobs. Yet his numbers are falling and falling fast.

The most notable poll asked whether you would rather have former President George W. Bush as President or President Obama? Obama won but only by 3% points, 47% preferring Obama while 44% Bush. Not good news if you are a Democrat.
