New Gallup poll today finds that President Obama gets “poor marks on . . . three  big economic issues: the federal budget deficit, creating jobs, and the economy  generally.” Gallup writes, “He earns his lowest issue ratings on the economic  issue areas tested in the survey, with approval on the federal budget deficit  the lowest at 30%, and his approval on the economy not much higher, at  36%.”
Gallup also points out, “Obama's  ratings on the economy are significantly worse than all three prior successful  presidential incumbents at this same point in their first term, according to the  available Gallup trends. . . . Comparing presidents' various issue approval  ratings to their overall job approval ratings from the same polls, it appears  that the economy approval rating is consistently the closest to overall job  approval, and therefore arguably the most relevant.”
