    Did you even read the story? Obama's rating on issues important to them dropped to 49%.

    There's more . . .

    well, to be fair, the poll numbers have zero correlation with actual performance.

    Rasmussen is a good site and one of the best source's for non-editorialized polling info. If you go to Rasmussen and PollingReport.com you get the widest array of opinion polls taken. Between the two of them you would have almost 100% of the polls conducted with little or no commentary. I would rather read the polls myself then read a reporters "take" on the polling info.

    There is no question Obama's numbers are dropping. Its to be expected. There is no question he is losing public support for a health plan. There is no question he is losing public opinion on Afghanistan.

    He still has good numbers on Iraq and foreign relations despite Afghanistan.

    Job approval, Red. His job approval ratings are in decline, which is understandable because he hasn't accomplished anything to date, except to make Bush look like a miser.

    His arrogant, condescending speaking style still resonates with some, but those days are numbered as well.

    Dropped as they always do, but still above 50%, not the 24% alleged. Those are Dick Cheney numbers from Hell.

    Turning the recession around wasn't a bad start for Obama. What did Bush get accomplished in his first 10 months?

    Chased OBL into the mountains and into oblivian, which despite Obama's rhetoric is apparently where he'll stay.
