A new survey from USA Today/Gallup taken this past weekend shows President Obama's job approval rating upside down, with 47% approving of the job he's doing as President but a record 50% disapproving. The details of the polls as it relates to the public's impression of the newly passed health care legislation, is pretty grim for the President and his party: - Close to 2/3 say the bill "costs too much and expands the government's role in health care too far."
- 50% call passage of the bill a "bad thing" while 47% consider it a "good thing."
- 53% say the Democrats' tactics in passing the bill constitute an "abuse of power" while 40% say they were appropriate.
