62% of registered voters disapprove of Obama handling of health care, 59% dislike his handling of economy, half of independent voters would approve entire Congress going GOP, Quinnipiac Poll, 2700 registered voters, Dec. 3-9, 2013-UK Daily Mail

.
"He's under water on the economy, 37–59 per cent, 34–62 percent on health care." 2700 registered voters polled Dec. 3-Dec. 9.

12/10/13, "Oh, Bam! President's approval rating plummets to 38 per cent overall, just 34 per cent on health care and 40 per cent on Iran," UK Daily Mail, Martosko

"Barack Obama is facing poll numbers that are now in the same territory as President George W. Bush's following Hurricane Katrina.

The Quinnipiac University Polling Institute released numbers on Tuesday showing that just 38 per cent of registered voters approve of the job Obama is doing as president, with a whopping 56 per cent saying they disapprove.

The president has lost his landslide electoral edge among young voters, too, with a negative 41–49 per cent rating among 18- to 29-year-old voters. His once formidable support among Hispanics has also evaporated: They now support him by an historically small 50–43 per cent margin....

The public believes he is not 'honest and trustworthy,' by a 52–44 per cent score. A smaller majority, 51 per cent, said he lacks 'strong leadership qualities.'...

Fully half of independent voters– those aligned with neither the Democratic nor the Republican party – said they would back a Congress completely under Republican control.

Pollsters interviewed nearly 2,700 voters between Dec. 3 and Dec. 9, asking their opinions after a spate of positive news hit TV broadcasts and Internet news portals about jobs and the economy.

The results suggest the staying power of Obama's unpopular health insurance overhaul and his administration's controversial nuclear deal with Iran.

Even Democrats are beginning to doubt the president who famously promised hope and change: 18 per cent of them now say they're no fans of Obama's work in the Oval Office.

While Obama enjoys a 50–41 per cent positive rating for his handling of terrorism, that's the only issue Quinnipiac polled where he comes out on top. He's under water on the economy, 37–59 per cent, 34–62 percent on health care and 42–49 per cent on foreign policy.

Iran, too, is making Americans uncomfortable. Just 40 per cent of registered voters say they approve of the White House's approach to the Islamic republic, whose expanding nuclear program is the subject of a deal brokered in November by the U.S. and five other nations. A larger 48 per cent group disapprove.

Americans are less disapproving of the agreement itself, by a 44–46 margin, and a 45–37 plurality say it will make America 'less safe.'" via Drudge
