Zogby’s latest numbers on Obama are pretty stark — 50-50% approve/disapprove. It’s usually best to take Zogby polls with an entire salt lick, but he usually gets the general trendline correct. Though I doubt half of America has truly broken free of Obama’s mesmerizing BS, I do think he’s losing Obamacan and independent support. For Obamacans, it’s the realization that his lovely “temperament” is no substitute for conservative principles. Independents just want jobs and increasingly question his competence.

Zogby’s poll is still an outlier, but the latest poll from Rasmussen is pretty stark as well — only 56% approval. In fact, counting Zogby, 5 out of the last 10 polls all placed Obama under 60%.

Worse for Obama, unemployment figures usually turn around LATE in a recovery, as Ed Morrissey rightly points out. Even under best case scenarios, Obama’s numbers will continue to suffer for many months to come.

Do I want Obama to fail? No. I want him to wake up to the destruction he’s inflicting on our way of life. Barring such a change of heart, however, I’ll settle for failure. Better one man fail than our nation be turned into a Nanny State.
