Yet another national survey shows President Barack Obama registering an all time low approval rating. According to the new Ipsos/McClatchy poll, 49% approve of the job he is doing as president while an equal number disapprove.  The 49/49 split represents a ten point drop from Ipsos' last survey taken October 29 - November 1.

Obama has lost support across the board over the past eight weeks, declining a net of 11 points of support among Democrats, 8 points among Republicans, and a whopping 18 points among Independents:

Democrats
Approve 77 (-5 vs. last poll)
Disapprove 21 (+6)

Republicans
Approve 16 (-5)
Disapprove 81 (+3)

Independents
Approve 41 (-4)
Disapprove 55 (+14)

Obama has also lost ground across the board on specific issues, most notably on the economy.
