Numbers For Obama Down In New Poll



The Rasmussen daily Presidential Tracking Poll has turned negative for Barack Obama for the first time.  This right way-wrong-way poll is pretty simple.  They just subtract the percentage of people who strongly disagree with the Administration's policies and actions from the percentage of people who strongly support them.  And as of yesterday 32 percent strongly approved and 37 percent strong disapprove which results in a negative 5. 
When you figure in those who somewhat approve with those who strongly approve Obama ends up with about 52 percent, but that's down from his winning percentage in the presidential election..also a first in the poll.
