Here is a article from AOL. You know it is bad when they report bad news for Barry Hussein dip$hit Obama.

Obama Approval Rating Dips in July

PRINCETON, N.J. (July 12) - President Barack Obama averaged a 58% job approval rating for the first eight days of July, down from an average of 61% for June, according to the Gallup Poll. His approval rating is down most significantly among independents, to 53% so far in July from an average of 59% in June; it has dropped two points among Republicans (from 25% in June to 23% so far in July) and has gone up a point among Democrats, to 90%.
Democrats have remained stalwart in their support for Obama all year, with this month's average rating of 90% roughly in line with where it has been all year.

How would you rate Obama's job performance so far?
Poor 56%
Fair 17%
Excellent 14%
Good 13%
Total Votes: 134,895

Has your opinion of him changed over the past few months?
Yes, it's worsened 59%
No 31%
Yes, it's improved 10%

Among Republicans, Obama's standing has dropped from 40% in late January to 23% in early July, the biggest falloff among the three partisan groups across the first six months of the Obama administration. Independents' overall downward shift across the January to early July time period has been nine points, significantly less than the drop among Republicans, although, as noted, independents have dropped most in the July-to-June comparison.
In addition to monthly averages, Gallup reports Obama's job approval rating at Gallup.com each day, based on three-day rolling averages. Obama reached a new administration low of 56% for July 5-7; his approval average is one point higher at 57% for the latest three-day period, July 6-8.

Comparisons to Other First-Year Presidents
From a historical perspective, Obama's current July rating is not exceptional. It is roughly the same as the rating of George W. Bush in early July of his first year.
