    Obama has worst approval rating since Nixon
    President Barack Obama is ending his fifth year in office with the lowest approval ratings at this point in the presidency since President Richard Nixon, according to a new Washington Post/ABC poll released Tuesday.

    Obama's approval rating in the poll stands at 43%. By comparison, President George W. Bush had a 47% approval rating at the end of the fifth year of his presidency. And all other Post-World War II presidents had approval ratings above 50% — with the exception of Nixon, who, amid the Watergate scandal, had a dreadful 29% approval rating.

      We knew all along. Blame the Republican Party for selecting an unelectable horses ass to run against him. Just the horse would have stood a decent chance.

          Mitt Romney is a great man. Terrific family man with high morals, and a proven leader.

          Would've made a wonderful President.

                Opie. Take your blinders off pal. I love you man but its embarrasing that Romney was the best the Republicans could put forward. And I'm no Obama fan.

                Morals and family orientation are great for leading a church but it takes more than that to lead a Nation. Guy was completely unenelectable. All it did was ensure Obama an easy W.

                  who cares?

                  bush had the highest approval rating of any president (90%) after 911 but left office with the lowest in history. the only rating that matters if your last one and i guarantee obamas wont be anywhere as low as bushs 22%.

                  dow up 8000 since bushs last year as president. auto sales up 6 million. gdp up 4%, in the negative under bush. jobs being created instead of massive layoffs. record foreclosures under bush, under control with obama.

                  anyone who claims they arent better off now than 2008 is a lying dumbfuk.

                    Whew! Just in time. No 3rd term for you Obama!

                    People have become more and more cynical about politicians (rightfully so).

                    No mention of the amazing republican (remember them...Mitt "he's up on intrade" Romney. Still waiting for those ads where they showed us all the jobs Mitt created...I mean here, not in China) and their approval rating though. You know, the guys who actually control the G-D purse strings right? Nope. It's all about one guy. He's a puppet, but he's a dictator...no one knows what he is...but they know it's wrong.

                    The offshore market has tanked since John and Opie's (former) hero Bush signed the port security bill which effectively killed easy access to books (and subsequently turned SBR from the biggest affiliate recipient in the world to a forum that has to go into last ditch cash grabs with scam books (then essentially go silent for months hoping turnover will keep semi-peace)

                    Obama has disappointed me in some regards (privacy issues, drone attacks). But until he flat out lies us into a trillion dollar war (Iraq), that kills half a million locals plus 4500 of our own soldiers, then Obama still has a long penetrating hill to reach the level of just one POTUS ago.

                    Everything really is bigger in Texas. Including the whiners.

                        The elections was rigged, 99% of the color peepz and minorities voted Obama base on the color of his skin

                        The white candidates never stood a chance

                                  Everyone pumping Obama for the growth in the markets

                                  When they stop pumping 75 billion a month, or people realize that basically every stock out there now is artificially inflated. Gonna be fun to see what you guys say as it all blows up in his face, or maybe it holds off and our next president takes the fall.

                                          So blame the Republicans for Obama's low rating?? WTF?

                                          Does the left or Obama take ANY responsibility for anything?

                                          A year ago there were leftys right here saying Obama is one of the greatest presidents in history. Now they are only left to say well yea, he sucks but only because of Bush and the Republicans.

                                          Obama is earning his place in history as one of the worse Presidents in US history as measured by his approval rating. It's not Bush's fault that he sucks. Reminds me of my ex who put on a dress and asked if it made her ass look big. I was honest and said no its your big ass that makes your ass look big. Same deal with Obama, his approval ratings suck because he sucks.

                                              WTF - you read it that way?

                                              Obama low ratings...Repub controlled congress - INSANELY LOWER ratings. My point was that all politicians have shitty ratings - because people have changed their attitude. People used to actually look to politicians (JFK, Reagan...who left with barely over 50% as an approval rating) as inspirations , now they look to them as managers (and most think they're doing a lousy job of managing)

                                                    "No mention of the amazing republican (remember them...Mitt "he's up on intrade" Romney. Still waiting for those ads where they showed us all the jobs Mitt created"

                                                    Well Muly your first sentence of your first real paragraph went after Republicans as if Mitt has something to do with the subject of why Obama's ratings are the second lowest in history.

                                                    Obama expanded the use of the NSA well past what Bush did. He also had more meetings with the head of the IRS than all other presidents combined and how ironic that conservative groups were targeted?? And do you think he is so stupid that he didn't know millions would have their health coverage cancelled?

                                                    Mully come back from the dark side and quit defending this jackass. The mid terms are just months away and the left is going to be trounced because of this guy. It's not a shift in polling, that's just another excuse.

                                                      The fact that you think "your" side is less dark, is very telling. And the fact that I've stated that I wanted Obama charged with murder (Abdulrahman al-Awlaki) show's that maybe there's more than just 2 sides.

                                                      This is me being civil. I was pretty sure it was proven that it wasn't just conservative groups that were targeted by the IRS (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/0...n_3492679.html)

                                                      Now, I know Schulman (IRS) visited the white house a lot - but you have a source that Obama actually met with him (or his position) more than all other POTUS combined? I could only find a very partial list of the days he visited, and Obama wasn't even in Washington on some of them. Not disputing it - but I can't verify your claim either.

                                                            Would've made a wonderful President.
                                                            He was the wrong man to make the argument against Obamacare. It was the biggest issue of the election and he couldn't make a credible argument against it.

                                                            His 47% speech will also go down as one of the biggest blunders in election history.
