But Tex, we might be experiencing the Bush corollary, if the Republicans can't put up a candidate which the public likes better, even a President which is disliked by a substantial number of voters could be re-elected.
Obama is completely unpalatable, with nothing to attract me to him. So all the Republicans have to do is to come up with anybody of any charm and wit, and they'd win. But as Mike has aptly identified, the Republicans are bereft of salient ideas which appeal to the public conscience. We have time to recover but I don't see the party doing what it takes. We need to jettison Palin faster than Goat turns to man-made boobs.

I'm more concerned about neutering his leftist agenda as much as possible until we can even the odds in 2010. That's the real value in these tanking poll numbers.

I honestly didn't think that a year later, I'd still have reason to post about Obama hitting new lows in the polls.

Haven't taken the time to post an Obama poll update in a while. Gallup's 3-day rolling average of "adults" (not voters) has him hitting 39% twice in three days.
And Rasmussen's likely voter poll shows Obama 1-point shy of his largest (dis)approval gap ever:

So in other words, Obama's hovering in the low 40s is the same territory that Ronald Reagan saw during his third year in office. Reagan wasn't able to instantly clean Carter's messes, so by year three, the public grew impatient. Shocking.

Until Obaman's approval rating is at zero, it's not low enough.
I fear Obama may be re-elected yet I for the life of me can't see how he has any approval rating. His handling of health care is wrong. His handling of the mortgage mess was made worse by him. His handling of the economy is completely wrong. So he looks good when dining with Europeans. Big deal.

But hey, it's not all bad. He's back up to 40% overall approval. Just like Reagan!
