This is the same poll that reports collapse in support for the health care bill/s which was released in full at 6:30 p.m.
Even more astounding:
More than four in 10, 41%, of respondents said they had a very or somewhat favorable view of the Tea Party movement, while 24% said they had a somewhat or very negative view of the group. The Tea Party movement gained notoriety over the summer following a series of protests in Washington, D.C. and other cities over government spending and other U.S. economic policies.
Meanwhile, the Democratic Party, which controls both the White House and Congress, has a 35% positive rating compared with a 45% negative rating.
The Republican Party identifies closest to the Tea Party movement’s ideology, but the group has also caused splits within the GOP. Republicans currently hold a 28% favorability rating compared with a 43% negative one.
Here are the full poll results:

Only 33% of Americans believe the nation is going in the right direction!!
A full 55% of Americans believe the nation is going in the wrong direction. (Sorry, the graphics lead to the wrong interpretation of these figures; however, the question seems to be aimed at Obama.
See this graphic.
Teabaggers have a 41% approval rating while Obama has a 47% job approval rating.
This is a huge sea change.
We are witnessing the collapse of support for Democrats, Obama and the Health Care bill/s. In addition, when people begin to understand the financial reform bill that came out of the House last week is so weak as to represent no movement forward at all, Democrats and Obama will lose even more support.
I could not have predicted such a precipitous collapse of Obama's support.
P.S.
By the way, Tweetie is taking Howard Dean apart right now.
