For Democrats, the red flags are flying at full mast.

The title comment comes from Democratic pollster Peter D. Hart, who conducted the NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll that confirms Gallup, Rasmussen and yesterday's ABC/Wapo polls which show Barack Obama in a freefall and his approval numbers dwindling down.

For the first time, Obama’s overall job approval rating has fallen below 50 percent (to 47 percent). In addition, for the first time since Sept. 2007, a plurality (45 percent) sees the Democratic Party in a negative light. And the percentage believing the country is on the wrong track (55 percent) is at its highest level in the Obama presidency.

“This survey underscores what I consider a dramatic and unmistakable change in the political landscape,” said Democratic pollster Peter D. Hart, who conducted the survey with GOP pollster Bill McInturff. “For Democrats, the red flags are flying at full mast.”

“The sagging economy is beginning to drag him down,” McInturff added. “This is increasingly becoming President Obama’s economy.”


That was from MSNBC's article ragrding the latest poll and here is Wall Street Journal's.... both show the Democratic party is in deep trouble and continuing to dig themselves deeper.
