From Gallup Poll

65% of all voters confident in Obama as president.
33% of Republicans confident in Obama as president.
Ideologically liberal voters have lessened in their confidence of Obama as president since cabinet picks.

» Commentary by Kris Lazaro (registered Democrat)

Before Obama announced his cabinet selections, Obama had a 91% confident rating among liberals. Now it stands at just 84%. According to Gallup, this is because the "group may have hoped for more [change]" than they are getting.

The selections that stand out as being diametrically opposed to change are his selections of Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State and the Secretary of Defense from the Bush administration.

"Overall, the Gallup Daily tracking data find Americans holding firm to their general notion that Obama will make a good president, and little he has done throughout the transition period thus far has changed opinions for better or for worse." says Gallup.
