The current Gallup poll shows President Obama’s approval rating at 46%, tied with his disapproval rating. But the telling part of the poll is the jump in disapproval. The poll shows a drop in approval from the previous day of 3% and a rise in the disapproval of 2%.

Over at Rasmussen, the same phenomenon was observed with a drop in approval of 2% and an increase in disapproval of the same amount. Now only 45% approve of Obama while 54% disapprove.

Rasmussen also measures the degree of approval and disapproval providing an index of those that strongly approve to those that strongly disapprove. This index stands at -17 with only 27% strongly approving and 44% strongly disapproving. The significance of this data is a gage of the solid support for or against Obama’s job approval.

Rasmussen reports yet another low water mark for President Obama shatters his previous record low (from yesterday).

The president’s approval index is -21. That number is the difference in the number of respondents saying they Strongly Approve of the president’s job, and those who Strongly Disapprove of Obama’s performance. And for the first time, Obama’s Strongly Disapprove rating has reached 46%. Add to that the 10% that simply disapprove and the Rasmussen poll shows a total disapproval of 56% – another record for Obama.

Only 25% strongly approve of Obama’s performance, 2% better than his all time low of 23% set last week. Those that simply approve of Obama’s job totaled 19% for a total approval of just 44% which matches his previous low mark also set last week.

So Obama has reached a new low in overall approval of -12% (44% approve and 56% disapprove).

These numbers are, perhaps, the strongest indication of the impact of the Health Care bills on the next elections. While the bills have not even passed and made their way through the Conference Committee, the voters are showing their displeasure at these bills
