Disastrous economic policies inflict real and painful consequences on real people, not to mention the toll they take in the political sphere, as new polling data shows. From Rasmussen Reports:

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Sunday shows that 23% of the nation’s voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Forty-two percent (42%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -19.

Today is the second straight day that Obama’s Approval Index rating has fallen to a new low. Prior to the past two days, the Approval Index had never fallen below -15 during Obama’s time in office

At what point will the Obama administration acknowledge it must reverse course to allow this country to recover and prosper again? Steve Forbes offers the way forward.
