The RasmussenReports.com site shows President Barack Obama's approval staying in single digits, between 4-7 points.If you look at the Rasmussen chart, Obama really had no where to go but down. He started out as a very popular candidate, then president. However, during the campaign he was very vague and sounded like a moderate.
I think the low negative numbers at the start of Obama's presidency shows many were willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.
Now that the people see what he is doing, who is nominated and what policies are important to him, his negatives have skyrocketed.
Even still, I don't think the chart is too bad or alarming. Might it be just right?
About one-third of the people think he is doing a great job and another third can't stand what he is doing. So, that leaves the remaining third somewhere in between. Seems balanced to me.
