| Description | "A new poll from the Associated Press finds President Barack Obama’s approval rating sinking to just 37%, with 53% disapproving of the way he is doing his job as President.
As Ed Morrissey over at Hot Air points out, the AP buried that information several paragraphs down in an article that hammers Republicans:
ASSOCIATED PRESS
. . . . Most Americans disapprove of the way Obama is handling his job, the poll suggests, with 53 percent unhappy with his performance and 37 percent approving of it. Congress is scraping rock bottom, with a ghastly approval rating of 5 percent. . . .
— Fifty-two percent said Obama is not doing enough to cooperate with Republicans to end the shutdown; 63 percent say Republicans aren’t doing enough to cooperate with him.
— Republicans are split on just how much cooperation they want. Among those who do not back the tea party, fully 48 percent say their party should be doing more with Obama to find a solution. But only 15 percent of tea-party Republicans want that outreach. The vast majority of them say GOP leaders are doing what they should with the president, or should do even less with him. . . . " |
