Since 1992, California has been a reliably Democratic state when it comes to presidential politics. But a new survey shows President Obama's approval rating has fallen 13 points in the last year.
Obama's overall approval rating in the state is at 52%. That's down from 65% shortly after he took office last year. Voters are evenly split on the president's handling of the healthcare issue, with 45% of voters saying they approve and another 45% saying they disapprove of the president's healthcare stance. Earlier this year, 53% of those surveyed said they disapproved of the president's work on healthcare. Is high unemployment hurting Obama?
