Barry drops below the Mendoza line … approval below 40%

August 14, 2011

Geex, what a way to start a vacation.

Just before leaving for his midwest bus trip and Cape Cod, the President gets some new survey results from Gallup: Only 39% approve of the job he’s doing as president.

In baseball, the Medoza line (i.e. the line between poor and bad performance)  is a batting average of .200.

I think it’s fair to say that 40% is the presidential approval equivalent.

Note: the score comes from left-leaning Gallup, not right-leaning Rasmussen.
