Obama Poll Rating, 46% - 46% Gallup

Gallup: Reports that the bump President Obama got from passing health care reform has gone, the President now stands at 46% job Approval and 46% Disapproval. Thus President Obama after getting health care reform passed now has to sell it again to the American people. The White House wanted to move on to jobs, jobs after HCR but to prevent the loss of the House and Senate in 2010 Mid Term Elections the President will have to sell HCR all over again to the voter. Thus while American voters wanted Obama to deal with getting Americans back to work he has spent a year and half on a subject low in the polls. The Oval got blue dog Democrats to vote for HCR with the idea that the US voter will support HCR after it passed, this has not worked, most polls show that a majority of US voters oppose HCR, RCP has an average of these polls and at present the RCP average is the following, 40.8% favour HCR, while 50.1% oppose. If these polls stay the same over the next few months the Oval might find that after November it has to deal with a Republican Congress, a Congress that will have the mandate to say NO to Obama.
