And the RCP average hit a new low today, spread of approve-disapprove is now -3.6% (was -3.5). The “trend” on the RCP graph is looking particularly ghastly for obama. Relentlessly down with brief periods of sideways motion.
I guess that appearance on “the view” didn’t help much.
Enjoy it while it lasts, there will no doubt be a suspicious poll soon that raises his score.
This new leg down seems to have coincided with (1) the Sherrod Charade and (2) more bad economic data causing lots of people to worry about a “double dip”. I’m thinking more (2) than (1). Sherrod affair will have temporary ramifications, economy is ever-present.
I stand corrected: I had not refreshed my page on RCP, obama now stands at -4.6% overall, a massive new low, more than a percentage point greater than yesterday, mostly because of Ras’s new figures being so devastating today.
The democrats should be in full meltdown mode by monday. People will run, not walk, away from this toxic president.
