Overall Performance
Recent polls indicate that President Obama’s approval rating has declined in the midst of the BP Gulf oil crisis.
How would you rate the President’s overall job performance?

I am not sure that the drop is due to just the oil crisis,which by the way would be very unfair,but as the article stated a variety of factors and issues.I give him a strong B.

Average at best.

How do you rate him?A percentage point down equal to the additional debt incurred.?Let's settle on a 1 on a scale of 100

I give him an "A" for finally getting the b*lls to get BP in line. He comes through but tends to analyze a bit longer than our last President. That's a good thing.Bravado after contemplation

Yeah, you can quote me-"I have always wondered the voting history of the people in the polled group."Nevertheless-I do think the President has done reasonably well.Like another person already pointed out, this President has inherited such an absolute "mess" from the Bush Presidency.It is going to take awhile just to clean up "wallstreet"!!Not to mention the Gulf oil spill!!Obama seems to have a firm grip on reality, and I believe he deserves our patience.

Am I to give him an "A" because he now wants to "KICK ASS"?

C for always being one step behind.

I give Mr. President a 70% rating base on the overall state of the country. With the current headlines concerning the oil spill that has occurred on the watch of Mr.Obama it have put a damper on his rating.Let us not be fooled,after we finish throwing our firey darts at him, after the end of the day, he's still the President, and will be for the next six years.(smile)

Ratings are only popularity polls.I don't care.As william said he is our President (for now)

Compared to his predecessor? A

I'm sick and tired of the republicans trying to put the Bush disaster on Obama

He's in the C range, i would like to see him get rid of some his advisers especially Ms. Barnes. She don't have a clue as to whats going on.

Some of you tend to forget... We are all Americans, We are all on the same team. When you take the oath of office - all that crap (past and future) is yours. Deep Horizon was recently inspected - this is and always has been on Obama's watch as it was HIS agency that inspected the rig. Blame doesn't fix things - LEADERSHIP does!

I stiil give him a "A" for all of the mess that he inherited.I cannot imagine how messed up we would be if Bush was still in there.
