The new national poll from NBC and the Wall Street Journal is stuffed with bad news for President Obama. His job approval rating — 41 percent — is as low as it has ever been.
And yet, all of those bad numbers pale in comparison to how people responded to this question: "Thinking about the rest of Barack Obama's term as president, do you think he can lead the country and get the job done or do you no longer feel that he is able to lead the country and get the job done?"
Fifty-four percent — let me repeat, 54 percent — said that Obama "cannot lead and get the job done," while just 42 percent said he could lead. I asked the pollsters behind the NBC-WSJ survey for the party ID breakouts on that question, and here's what they sent me: 84 percent of Republicans said that Obama can't lead or get the job done, as did six in ten (61 percent) of independents. (Just one in five Democrats agreed.)
That is an absolutely remarkable vote of no-confidence in Obama's ability to do the job he was elected to do.

80% of the Democrat respondents must hate the traditional United States.
If you remove blacks, illegals and whacked-out liberals, his approval rating would probably be 5%.
Spotting him at least 40 %
The fact that he has 41% approval is astonishing and depressing.
Who are the 41% who approve of him and the 46% who still think he can get the job done?
Don’t bother to answer. I know who they are, and it makes me really depressed.
Half of us in this Country knew he could not lead anything 5 years ago!
I want to know what he has done in 5 years that allows even 20 percent to think he can lead us anywhere?
There has never been a worse president despite what the black population says...
Thats my thought as well.
He is everything I thought he would be - and more.
The legacy of the first African American President of the United States is that he is an incompetent closeted homosexual narcissist who led a country he bitterly resents into an era of neo pagan decadence and decline.
So?
He still goes down as a two termer...or just goes down...
I think if you remove the groups you mention, his rating would be 0%.
The 41% who still back this colossal failure are the Takers, who cash their checks on the tax payers’ dime. They contribute nothing of value to the nation.
I should add:
“FU Mitt Romney. You arrogant fk. You screwed up the entire election for your ego”.
Punk
Bingo. I read Dreams from My Father when Hillary was still the presumptive nominee, and nothing this guys has done has been a surprise for me.
Well said!
Unless Congress gets the backbone to stop him!
From his picture of that grin it looks like he doesn’t give a damn. I would caption this picture as ‘HA, Ha, you Americans are screwed for two more years and in that time I will have succeeded in my goals of US’s destruction.’
The fact that he has 41% approval is astonishing and depressing.
Other than blacks (13%), that is 28% approval. Take out unions, gays, transsexuals, IRS employees, public school teachers,, nutjobs, etc., there is not anyone left.
