POLL OF CHANGE: Obama’s job approval slipping to ‘50-50’. “The honeymoon is over, a national poll will signal today as President Obama’s job approval stumbles to about 50 percent over the lack of improvement with the crippled economy. The sobering numbers come as the president backpedals from two prime-time gaffes – one comparing his bowling score to a Special Olympian and another awkwardly laughing about the economy, which prompted Steve Kroft of ’60 Minutes’ to ask ‘are you punch-drunk?'”

Well, we’ll see how this holds up with other polls besides Zogby; this seems a bit low by comparison. On the other hand, it’s been a bad week for Obama, for those paying attention. (Note: Earlier post on this somehow got published to yesterday morning — before the poll came out — and then I couldn’t find it until after I’d put up this one.)
