A McClatchy-Marist poll puts Obama's economic approval rating at just 37% among registered voters

In addition, a Gallup poll found that U.S. economic confidence has plummeted by 7% since June 2011. In 2010, Obama used Pennsylvania's Allentown Metal Works as a backdrop to tout his stimulus and job-creation success. A couple of months later, the plant closed. Recently, the White House Council of Economic Advisers released its seventh quarterly report. It showed that the Obama stimulus added or saved fewer than 2.4 million jobs - at a cost to taxpayers of more than $250,000 per job. To date, the Obama administration's handling of our economy is a failure.
