The scandals that have broadsided the Obama administration in recent
weeks have the potential for leaving a gaping hole in the president's
standing with the American people, according to a new IBD/TIPP poll.
Overall, more Americans still approve (48%) than disapprove (44%) of the job President Obama is doing — a 3 percentage-point improvement over approval readings in the last two months.
But the reverse is true among those who are following the administration's handling of the Benghazi crisis, the IRS' targeting of the Tea Party and other groups, and the Justice Department's seizure and pursuit of the phone logs of the Associated Press and Fox News reporter James Rosen.
