The awakening?

People starting to rouse from their slumber?

President Barack Obama’s approval and trust numbers have dropped sharply in the last month, a new poll found on Monday.

The president’s approval was down 8 points from May, to 45 percent from 53 percent, according to a new CNN/ORC International poll. Fifty-four percent of those surveyed disapproved, up 9 points from CNN’s polling in May.

For the first time in his presidency, the poll also found less than half of respondents believed Obama was honest. Forty-nine percent of those surveyed said he was honest and trustworthy, a drop of 9 points from last month.

The drop in support for Obama was especially steep among young voters and independents. With voters ages 18 to 29, Obama’s approval numbers dropped 17 points, according to CNN’s polling director. Among voters ages 18-34, 48 percent approved of the job Obama is doing and 50 percent disapproved.

Independents’ approval of the president dropped 10 points, to 37 percent, and disapproval was up 12 points, to 61 percent.
The poll was conducted after revelations about National Security Agency surveillance of Americans and ongoing coverage of reports about the IRS targeting political groups.

Interesting how this has coincided with the National Press' turning against Obama in recent weeks eh?

Or at least actually reporting and investigating?

Only the die-hard stubborn, hard heads still believe......or those paid......or those just too stupid. Much like GWB'S 2nd go 'round.

One day, there will be a president I can be proud of.
