The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Monday shows that 25% of the nation's voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as president. Forty-three percent (43%) Strongly Disapprove, giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -18 (see trends).
Following passage of health care, enthusiasm for the president among Democrats soared. Today, however, just 49% of Democrats Strongly Approve of Obama?s performance. That?s down from a high of 65%. It remains to be seen whether this is a temporary aberration or the beginning of a lasting change.
Sixty-three percent (63%) of voters nationwide favor repeal of the health care law. That?s the highest level of support for repeal yet measured.
The Presidential Approval Index is calculated by subtracting the number who Strongly Disapprove from the number who Strongly Approve. It is updated daily at 9:30 a.m. Eastern (sign up for free daily e-mail update). Updates are also available on Twitter and Facebook.

Most Americans have ?come to believe that the political system is broken, that most politicians are corrupt, and that neither major political party has the answers,? observes Scott Rasmussen. Just 27% believe Congress knows what it?s doing when it comes to the economy and 41% say that a group of people randomly selected from the phone book would do a better job than the current Congress. In his new book, Scott adds, ?Some of us are ready to give up and some of us are ready to scream a little louder. But all of us believe we can do better.?

What do we learn from this? Well the optimist would say that people are figuring it out. The cynic that 24% of our population are complete, irredeemable jackasses. Color me cynical. If you haven't already concluded this guy is a d-bag turd there's nothing else to say. FBO indeed.
