WASHINGTON - President Barack Obama's national standing has slipped to a new low after his victory on the historic health care overhaul, even in the face of growing signs of economic revival, according to the latest Associated Press-GfK poll.

The survey shows the political terrain growing rockier for Obama and congressional Democrats heading into midterm elections, boosting Republican hopes for a return to power this fall.

Just 49 percent of people now approve of the job Obama's doing overall, and less than that — 44 percent — like the way he's handled health care and the economy. Last September, Obama hit a low of 50 percent in job approval before ticking a bit higher. His high-water mark as president was 67 percent in February of last year, just after he took office.

Timmi, do you have a Bermudan or Swiss bank account where you store all of your racetrack riches? Didn't think so.

This is NOT "redistribution of wealth". It's going after people that have used their economic status to cheat the system for many years, causing the rest of us to have to overpay in taxes. It's tax evasion, flat out illegal, yet for some reason has been semi-allowed for too long. Good for the government to finally say "enough".
