Poll shows that only 23% of the nation's voters strongly approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as president

Forty-seven percent (47%) strongly disapprove of his performance as president. Overall, 41% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the president's performance. Fifty-eight percent (58%) disapprove. Obama continues to earn approval from 74% of Democrats. However, 88% of Republicans disapprove as do 63% of those not affiliated with either major political party. Sixty-two percent (62%) believe that no matter how bad things are, Congress can always make it worse. Just 29% believe the nation is generally heading in the right direction. Most say Congress should wait until after Election Day - and after the lame duck session - to consider major legislation.
