Opposition to Obama grows — strongly
◼ ANY REPUBLICAN 47% OBAMA 41% - Rasmussen
◼ Daily Presidential Tracking Poll -24 - Rasmussen
◼ Four in 10 Americans “strongly” disapprove of how President Obama is handling the job of president in the new Washington Post-ABC News poll - Washington Post
While the topline numbers are troubling enough, dig deeper into them and the news gets no better for Obama. Forty-three percent of independents — a group the president spent the better part of the last year courting — strongly disapprove of the job he is doing. Forty-seven percent of people 65 years of age and older — reliable voters in any election — strongly disapprove of how he is doing his job.
Strong opposition to Obama has grown markedly since the start of the year.
