As the health care plan struggles in the Senate, public opposition remains stable. Fifty-six percent (56% ) oppose the plan working its way through Congress while just 40% favor it.
...
Overall, 44% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the President's performance. That’s the lowest level yet measured for this president. Previously, his overall approval rating had fallen to 45% twice, once in early September and once in late November. Fifty-five percent (55%) now disapprove.
Mr. Obama's numbers have fallen faster than any other President since tracking pols were started 70 years ago. At this rate, Democrats will probably lose heavily next November at the polls. From my point of view, that's not necessarily a bad thing. This Congress has seriously endangered the ability of the Country to recover from the current recession by spending, spending and spending some more...
At current spending levels, the debt/deficit will achieve WW2 levels in 10 years...that doesn't include either the "Cap & Trade" bill nor the bills to seize control of health care...who's only way of being "deficit neutral" is by taxing the country heavily for four years prior to implementation of any of the plans. "which cup is the ball under"...
UPDATE: He's realclearpolitics.com agregate poll numbers:
