PAI Drops Again

Yesterday we shared that Rasmussen's Presidential Approval Index was at -12, today it is at -13. The percentage of Strongly Approves dropped another point to 27%. The Rasmussen Report characterizes the latest rating as follows:
That’s just a point above the lowest level ever recorded for this President. It’s also the sixth straight day in negative double digits, matching the longest such streak.
Combining the Strongly Approve with Somewhat Approve, and the Strongly Disapprove with the Somewhat Disapprove, Rasmussen finds:
Overall, 47% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the President's performance. Fifty-three percent (53%) disapprove.
These numbers cannot make President Obama's remaining supporters happy.
