Remember, when the President went to New Jersey and Massachusetts to rally the troops for victory over Chris Christie and Scott Brown, he had 38% and 37% “strong approval” support. Those voicing “strong approval” were the exact folks Obama needed to inspire to get to the polls.
And yet, he didn’t sway the numbers one smidgen.
Yeah, I said ‘smidgen’.
What are his national “strong approval” numbers now?
22%.
In other words, support among the faithful has dropped by 42%, and that makes it extremely difficult for the President be considered anything but a liability for Democrats hoping for a victory in November.
