In another sign of President Obama's deteriorating public support, more than half of Americans now say that he is failing as president, the latest IBD/TIPP poll finds.
President Obama says the midterm election will, in effect, be a referendum on his policies. Somebody needs to tell him that's the last thing the Democratic Party wants.
Despite the increasingly undeniable evidence of his failures across the board, President Obama's overall approval rating remains relatively high. Talk about the soft bigotry of low expectations.
President Obama's approval rating dropped to his lowest levels as the public hammers him on his handling of each of the major crises facing the country, according to the latest IBD/TIPP poll, released on Friday.
Barack Obama entered the White House with a thicker coat of political polytetrafluoroethylene than any American leader in history. But new polls suggest that, among the public at least, the Teflon has worn off.
Touting his “Year of Action,” President Obama is doing everything he can to show that he’s not a lame duck with sorry poll numbers, rendered ineffective by a Congress that may well turn even more Republican in this year’s elections – all of which is more or less the case these days.
This editorial, headlined "In The Moment" and following a 21-part series titled "The Audacity of Socialism," ran in Investor's Business Daily on Wednesday, Nov. 5, 2008, the day after Barack Obama was elected president. The new high in the chart was registered in this month's IBD/TIPP Poll.
Ju Hong's voice rang out loud and clear, interrupting the most powerful man in the world.
President Obama has vowed to bypass Congress and govern by the stroke of his pen and the bark of phone orders in place of the law. But a new IBD/TIPP poll shows the public is getting very wary of such abuses.
"If you like your health care plan, you can keep it," President Barack Obama said.
He said it not just once, but at least 37 times in recent years, according to PolitiFact.com.

"Young voters are turning against President Obama and his signature healthcare law, according to a new poll from Harvard University's Institute of Politics. Obama's approval rating has plunged to 41 percent with voters aged 18-29, down from 52 percent the last time Harvard polled the group. While 56 percent in the poll say they backed Obama last year, just 46 percent say they would do so again."
President Obama often blames Republicans for taking America from crisis to crisis. Fiscal cliff! Government shutdown! Near default!

President Obama holds slim but clear lead in our final poll, 50.3% to 48.7%, or 1.6 percentage points, with just 1% preferring other candidates. Romney runs behind in all age groups, except for those over 65, in which he has a 53%-46% edge. The results also show a pronounced gender split, with men favoring Romney 54%-46%, while women preferred Obama 55%-44%. But even among women there was a gap, with married women handing Romney a 6-point advantage, while unmarried women opted for Obama by a substantial 29 points. And even though Romney holds a 6-point lead among independents, Obama's 86-point advantage among Democrats -- who outnumber Republicans in registration -- gives him the overall lead.
With independents breaking his way, support among men on the rise and enthusiasm numbers firming, Mitt Romney has taken a 2-point lead over Barack Obama as the presidential race turns for home and the IBD/TIPP Poll — America's most accurate — shifts into daily tracking mode.
