Good news and bad news from our weekly tracking poll.

The bad news is, Dems' numbers have slipped a couple of points across the board. The good news is, so have Republicans' numbers...and given that they were already inhabiting the lowest depths of electoral unpopularity, that's a bad sign.

Research 2000 for Daily Kos. 5/4-7,2009. All adults. MoE 2% (4/20-4/23/2009 results):

	FAVORABLE	UNFAVORABLE	NET CHANGE
PRESIDENT OBAMA	69 (70)	26 (25)	-2

PELOSI:	37 (38)	46 (45)	-2
REID:	34 (34)	49 (49)	-1
McCONNELL:	21 (21)	61 (60)	-1
BOEHNER:	16 (16)	63 (62)	-1

CONGRESSIONAL DEMS:	43 (44)	49 (49)	-1
CONGRESSIONAL GOPS:	13 (14)	72 (71)	-2

DEMOCRATIC PARTY:	53 (54)	41 (40)	-2
REPUBLICAN PARTY:	21 (22)	69 (68)	-2

With abominable favorables of 16/63, it appears that John Boehner is the most unpopular politician in the United States of America.

The only thing worse off than Boehner is his flock: Congressional Republicans check in at 13% favorable, 72% unfavorable, indicating that they're more widely hated than Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Democratic Party still has a wide favorability edge over the Goposaurs:

And our fearless leader is still chugging along:

Not a great week for anyone, really, but Team Blue is still leaps and bounds ahead of the Goposaurs, who are really mining new levels of suckitude at this point.
