Now, remember, this is a poll of
adults , which will always be more favorable to the democrats.
You can take off 2-5 points from this for LV/RV.
Gallup.Com - Daily News, Polls, Public Opinion on Government, Politics, Economics, Management
39% Approve - 54% Disapprove.
I'm thinking his message of blame and unwillingness to admit his own failures is the reason.
I guess it probably didn't help that once again, obamacare, HIS signature legislative, got smacked down in the courts.

I'm surprised it is as high as it is.

Barry is about to be booted. Mobs of teenagers are roaming the streets getting their last shots in before law and order return to power.

Looks like America is giving a big fat raspberry to the messiah's handling of recent events. That's change I can believe in.

Not even close, sorry.
As we can see, your link is about the head to head matchup, 10 months out.
This is obama's daily approval rating on his job performance, which the Gallup has been using for years to gauge voter (well, adults here) sentiment.
Go ahead...email Gallup and tell them the poll is meaningless.
But your response is what I would expect from this really bad news for obama - deflection.
