(AP).An Associated Press-GfK poll says that public disapproval of President Barack Obama's handling of health care has jumped to 52 percent.
The same survey shows that 49 percent now disapprove of his overall performance as president. In July, just 42 percent disapproved of how he was handling his job.
The poll was released hours before a nationally televised speech before Congress in which the president plans to make a renewed case for overhauling the nation's health care system. The survey, conducted Sept. 3-8, underscores how the political climate shifted against Obama during the summer.
