Obama economic numbers slipped to 37 % in Marist poll


McClatchy:

President Barack Obama is in a fragile position as the 2012 campaign begins: Only 37 percent of registered voters approve of his handling of the economy, his lowest rating ever, according to a new McClatchy-Marist poll.

Another ominous sign for Obama: By nearly 2-1, voters disapprove of how he's handling the federal budget deficit, expected to hit a record $1.5 trillion this fiscal year, which ends Sept. 30.

"It's a real caution sign ... the four-year lease on the White House is very much dependent on how people end up looking at the economy," said Lee Miringoff, the director of the Marist Institute for Public Opinion, which performed the survey.

...
It the poll was of likely voters, Obama would probably be in even worse shape. He is still bitterly clinging to his liberalism, despite its failures in the real world. He is going to have to stop wasting money on "investments" that are not producing economic growth. He also needs to unleash the domestic energy business so that it can create thousands of good jobs and increase royalty revenue desperately needed to reduce the deficit.
