Forty-two percent (42%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -15.

This is the lowest Approval Index rating yet measured for President Obama.

Fifty-two percent (52%) of Democrats Strongly Approve
while 68% of Republicans Strongly Disapprove.

Among those not affiliated with either major political party, just 16% Strongly Approve and 51% Strongly Disapprove.

Forty-five percent (45%) want U.S. troops home from Afghanistan either right away or within a year.

Forty-three percent (43%) are opposed to such a firm timetable.
