Gallup: Obama's Approval at All-Time Low--Among Liberals By Terence P. Jeffrey September 19, 2011

(CNSNews.com) - President Barack Obama's job approval among liberals tied its all-time low in the Gallup poll last week, according to survey data released today.

In the seven-day period that ended on Sept. 18, only 68 percent of liberals told Gallup they approved of the way Obama was handling his job as president. The president's job approval among liberals had previously dropped to 68 percent in the week that ended on Aug. 28. (However, it then rebounded slightly, rising to 71 percent in the week that ended on Sept. 4, before dropping to 69 percent in the week that ended on Sept. 11.)

As recently as the week that ended May 22, 2011, Obama's approval in the Gallup poll had been at 81 percent among liberals.

Obama's approval among liberals hit a high of 92 percent in the Gallup poll in the week that ended on May 10, 2009.

Ironic that Obama gets slammed by the Left for not being Stalin enough and slammed by the Right for being too Stalin.

...and just what percentage of the electorate subscribes to the label of "liberal?"

Most of the disenchanted liberals are hating on him because he isn't liberal enough for them.

My very first thought. Gallup has him at 39% approval... rasmussen... no change... just a sine wave and an average that never moves up or down. scotty rasmussen has ruined his father Karl's business.

Obama has been reported as very depressed lately..we've stop listening to his political lip-speak reruns, we hear murmurs of his need for Zoloft or Wellbutrin...Congress won't get to his job bill for another month. What no emergency like all the other times? So why not just accept the fall, Democrats and Obama, that is so inevitable of your administration.

Amazing, “ONLY” 68 percent of liberals are brain dead now.

The majority of Libs will still kiss his butt at election time, maybe some will stay home.

The liberals that are opposed to Obama are not opposed to him because he did the wrong thing but that he did not do enough of the wrong thing.

Obama tries to impose far left policies on a
populace that clearly resists. That a small and
insignificant portion of the populace is of the
mindset that he hasn’t gone far enough is instructive.
The socialists don’t have any problem with forcing
their will on the rest of us. As conservatives we
understand what the far lefties are all about. If
and when the wishy-washy middle figures out what
is really going on the lefties will be squished like
the cockroaches they are. We may be seeing some
signs of that happening now.
