Poll: Obama Approval Sinks to All-Time Low with white people
President Barack Obama has hit an all-time low in approval ratings, thanks in large part to the troubled rollout of the Affordable Care Act website aimed at signing up people for coverage, according to a new poll.
Just 42 percent approve of Obama while a record high of 55 percent disapprove, according to a Washington Post/ABC News survey released Tuesday. His approval rating is down 6 percentage points in the last month and 13 percentage points so far this year, compared with similar surveys.
Obama is now also upside down in the public's eye when it comes to personal ratings: More than 50 percent say he's not a strong leader, does not understand 'people like me' and is not honest and trustworthy.
