A new Gallup Poll puts Obama at his lowest approval rating ever and finds most Americans do not want him to have a second term
For the third quarter of 2010, the seventh of his presidency, Obama's approval fell 2 more points, from 47.3% to 44.7%. Latest Gallup numbers also show that on the first day of his 22nd month in office, for the first time more Americans view Obama unfavorably than favorably, 50% to 47%, his lowest favorable rating yet. His highest favorable rating was just before he took office, 78%. Since then it's been a plummet of 31 points. According to Gallup's results, 39% of Americans now believe Obama deserves a second term. Unfortunately for him, 54% believe he does not deserve a second chance at change. That 54% against a second term is almost 2 points higher than the popular vote total Obama amassed in the 2008 election. At this point in the second year of George W. Bush's presidency, 62% thought he deserved a second term after only 48% voted for him in 2000.
