AP-GfK Poll: Obama more popular than Congress

WASHINGTON – Americans have come to detest Congress ever more deeply as it nears the end of a nasty fight over health care. But more than half still back President Barack Obama, a bright spot for a Democratic Party counting on its leader to help stave off expected losses in elections this fall.

The latest Associated Press-GfK poll found that fewer people approve of Congress than at any point in Obama's presidency. Support has dropped significantly since January to a dismal 22 percent as the health care debate has roiled Capitol Hill. Neither Republicans nor Democrats are safe; half of all people say they want to fire their congressman.



Obama's overall standing hasn't really moved since January. Neither have his ratings on health care and the economy.

By comparison, Congress' approval rating has dropped 10 percentage points since January, perhaps an indication that people are blaming lawmakers more than the president for gridlock that has paralyzed Washington on a host of fronts

Seems like the poll is not too good at separating Orange County Ca. (money) Republicans from Libertarians. Libertarians would be against these wars in both Iraq, and Afghanistan. They'd be pro-choice. They'd want to get rid of Social Security, and Medicare. I don't think they'd want to make insurance companies stop dropping sick people etc. They'd be against providing even emergency care to the poor. There are against public schooling. They might even be against having public fire departments. In that Mississippi Prom thing, they would be on the side of the Lesbian couple. I highly doubt there are that many people on here that are willing to agree to all this.
