Looks like Obama's lame duck session inspired approval into favorable territory has finally ended. 
This is the first full week he has a net negative job approval (on the RealClear Average Job approval) since Early January.  Today he is at -2.2%.  The last 5 polls all have Obama with a negative Job Approval.

Obama falls into negative approval at RealClear for the first time since Osama was killed:

net-.2% approval today

I expect Obama will rebound a bit with the pull out from Afghanistan and releasing oil from the strategic reserve.

If Obama falls back to a -5% or worse, like last Nov. and in April, he will be toast for reelection next year

Obama average approval now at -3.1  (RealClear), he has been in negative territory for about 2 weeks, I expect he get some sort a bump when the debt ceiling is raised and he takes credit for whatever "compromise" occurs.

Well I admit I was wrong.
There was no bump for Obama, his approval has dropped to -7.1, his approval, 43.4% is the lowest in his Presidency.
Can he turn it around?
