Double Digit Disapproval

Barack Obama's attack on the nation's health care delivery system hasn't helped his approval ratings. 

'The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Sunday shows that 29% of the nation's voters now Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Forty percent (40%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -11. That’s the first time his ratings have reached double digits in negative territory (see trends).'

His ratings took a precipitous dive when, without any knowledge of the facts, he said the Cambridge Massachusetts police acted "stupidly" when they placed a disorderly Harvard professor under arrest.  Obama's remark amounted to an accusation that Cambridge Police Sgt. James Crowley was guilty of racial profiling.
