Most Americans Say They're Worse Off Since Obama Took Office, Poll Shows

By Rich Miller - Dec 8, 2010 11:00 PM CT
More than 50 percent of Americans say they are worse off now than they were two years ago when President Barack Obama took office, and two-thirds believe the country is headed in the wrong direction, a Bloomberg National Poll shows.
The survey, conducted Dec. 4-7, finds that 51 percent of respondents think their situation has deteriorated, compared with 35 percent who say they’re doing better. The balance isn’t sure. Americans have grown more downbeat about the country’s future in just the last couple of months, the poll shows. The pessimism cuts across political parties and age groups, and is common to both sexes.

  1. Really? We're going to blame our woes on him? What about the previous president? Obama is just more of the same. The only reason I can see for being mad at him is that he is their tool, not his own man.
