Independents swing against Obama

Brutal: Obama’s approval among independents down to … 34/51; Update: Support for ObamaCare down to 40/52posted at 7:30 pm on November 19, 2009 by Allahpundit

His overall approval rating’s pretty grim too — 46/46, down five points since last month — but I’m highlighting the indies because (a) this is the same Fox News poll with the suspicious Republican sample that I cited earlier, and (b) a -17 among the group that’s going to decide the midterms is eye-popping, especially when you compare it to last month. In October, among indies, he was at 49/34. This month, a 15-point swing. What happened?

Lest you think this is an outrageous outlier, please note that Rasmussen has him at 46/53 today among likely voters.
