Gallup continues to see the Obama slide. The article at Gallup today, titled Obama Approval Slips Further in Fifth Quarter to 48.8% , indicates that Obama has ratings that rank among the lowest for elected Presidents since WWII.
Obama began his presidency with some of the higher approval ratings for a new president in recent history. But the battle over healthcare reform and the continuing economic slump have apparently taken a toll on his popularity, and his averages for his third, fourth, and fifth quarters have all ranked on the low end historically.
The difference for Democrats between 1994 and today, is that Democrats have Obama this time around. I'm sure they're comforted by that thought.
