June 21, 2009: the date America officially realizes that it has made a big, big mistake, and the “Democrat” brand becomes the biggest pinata in American political history.

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Sunday shows that 32% of the nation’s voters now Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Thirty-four percent (34%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -2. That’s the President’s lowest rating to date and the first time the Presidential Approval Index has fallen below zero for Obama (see trends).

Maybe it should be called the tipping point. Whatever, the jig is up, and the public approval data reflects it, and the trajectory is toward Jimmy Carter.

Fellow conservatives, please bring out your whacking sticks, as it is whacking time.
