Down, Down, Down

Here is an update to yesterday's article. According to Scott Rasmussen, Obama's presidential approval index rating has gone down three more points since yesterday to –8.

Yes, I realize that a three point swing in just one day might not be that statistically significant, but the point is that the trend is down, not up.
Of course it remains to be seen if this downward trend will continue or not, but I strongly suspect that it will.
And Obama's public image isn't helped by news reported by the New York Daily News that on her trip to Russia with her husband, Michelle carried a $5,950 purse. Of course, as expected, the White House has denied the story, but something like this doesn't look good when so many Americans are struggling to make ends meet due to the severe recession that we are in. Mrs. Obama could try to be a bit more sensitive it seems to me. She doesn't need any expensive purse like that. If she has the spare change to buy something like that, instead she should be donating that money to charity, not flaunting her new found wealth and status. Did the Obama's get into office so that they could help this country, or are they in it for themselves just like most other politicians are? So much for "change we can believe in." LOL.
