Republican Party Favorability Sinks to Record Low Joe Scarborough is wondering why GOP leadership doesn't come clean and say "We messed up". Beginning to look like the makings of what my daughter would call "an epic fail".
October 11, 201312 yr Only 9 points below Obamas approval rate of 37% and higher than congress's overall approval rating of 5%....
October 11, 201312 yr The sad part is people hate what our government's leaders are doing and yet they will re-elect them. No accountability equals no accomplishments.
October 11, 201312 yr Author Truthfully, I didn't think it was that high. You may be correct. WSJ poll (I think) has it at 24%. Krauthammer is asking where Cruz is. Likening him to the leaders who sent Custer and his troops to the Little Big Horn. There is plenty of blame to go around, but it is apparent how the American public sees it.

There is plenty of blame to go around, but it is apparent how the American public sees it. The Cruz comment is certainly interesting. I had not thought about that. He is probably pulling a McConnell on this and staying out of the way to avoid negative election baggage.

October 11, 201312 yr Only 9 points below Obamas approval rate of 37% and higher than congress's overall approval rating of 5%.... Actually the favorite pollster of conservatives has him at 51%. Daily Presidential Tracking Poll - Rasmussen Reports? Thursday, October 10, 2013 The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows that 51% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Obama's job performance.

The AP released their poll yesterday and Obama is at 37%. I'm just shocked most of mainstream media TV hasn't ran with that like they will with the GOP number. (Sarcasm)

Thursday, October 10, 2013 The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows that 51% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Obama's job performance. The fact that his performance rating is anywhere near that high should be mind boggling, but due to the direction our country seems to be heading, it's really not.

October 11, 201312 yr The AP released their poll yesterday and Obama is at 37%. I'm just shocked most of mainstream media TV hasn't ran with that like they will with the GOP number. (Sarcasm) His approval rating has remained fairly consistent. Republicans are at a low-water mark. I don't care to be in a "look at the polls" debate, but goodness, Republicans walked into this shutdown/debt ceiling claiming it would give them leverage for Obama to concede his major legislative effort.

October 11, 201312 yr Author Only saving grace I see for the GOP that I'm seeing is that it's October 2013 - not October 2014. Even the pollsters themselves (not the politicians or the voters) are calling a drop this fast "jaw-dropping".

There is nothing consistent about it.
