Wallstreet Executives Derail Obama Poll Numbers!!!

Yep, you read it correctly....according to our intellectual friends at the Daily Kos, the most recent poll numbers for Obama have fallen 13 points. The poll taken by the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute between June 26th and July 7th, shows a voter approval rating of 49% versus a voter disapproval rating of 44%. While the spread is still positive (+5), it is down from the May poll numbers of an approval rating of 62% and a disapproval rating of 31% (+31).

Peter A. Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute, attributed the new poll numbers to the economic climate, stating "The economy in Ohio is as bad as anywhere in America. These numbers indicate that for the first time voters have decided that President Barack Obama bears some responsibility for their problems." Until now, he said, voters largely have been "blaming former President George W. Bush." But now, voters "might be taking out their frustration on President Obama, possibly deciding that the change he promised has not come as quickly as they expected."

Of course this explanation cannot possibly be reality. The mighty three headed hydra (Obama, Pelosi and Reid) are protecting us all from the evils of the now destroyed Republican Party and any drop in poll numbers must be caused by the next right wing conspiracy. So to get to the bottom of this a poll was taken by the Daily Kos. And by more than 2 to 1, THE POLL SAYS:

DING: "Because he appointed wallstreet execs to run the economy"

Seriously, you guys must be delusional. No mention of the HUGE increase in debt. No mention of controversial policies such as universal health care or cap and trade. Regardless of where you fall on these issues, they are VERY controversial. Controversy leads to polarization, which in turn leads to tightening poll numbers. Or is it really that simple?
