Who are these 45.9%?
Are they brain dead?
Get over it. Obama won the election. If you don't like it, start grooming a better candidate, regardless of party. Try working WITH him instead of posting garbage like this.
Winning the election means he is the President, which we all acknowledge. This is about how well he is doing the job which the majority believes isn't very well. This performance has nothing to do with "working with him" - it has everything to do with with his failure to offer anything but a partisan, far left agenda to a country he promised a bi-partisan, centrist agenda.
I have to agree with the first poster. I have no idea who these 45.9% are. Even my Democrat friends don't like him anymore. I don't know anyone who thinks Obama is doing a good job.
And to the second poster, people don't want to work with him because he wants to expand government control over the lives of ordinary citizens. And surprise, surprise, ordinary citizens don't like that idea.
"Try working WITH him instead of posting garbage like this"...
Geez! What an inane comment!!
Why would anyone want to work with a commie?
Then again it might be understandable if one aligns one's self with the Peggy Joseph types...
Lovely!
Rasmussen Reports shows a Presidential Approval Index is a -18
The only person cheering is Jimmy Carter, whose presidency is starting to look competent by comparison.
anon 6/15 4.11
did you say that same thing about george bush? he won, get over it, work with him?
i'll bet you didn't.
hypocrisy is to be despised precisely BECAUSE it is so convenient and easy to fall into.
45.9%???
Seems a way too high. Maybe a misprint mistake in placing the decimal point?

Posting graph of Presidential approval is garbage? You must have graduated from the Hugo Chavez school of journalism.
Have you sent the message about working with us to the President? That's a two way street to most people, but he and you obviously believe "working WITH him" means laying down and taking whatever he wants to force on us.
