"Though Americans rate Obama poorly for his handling of the situation, they are less approving of how House Speaker John Boehner and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid are handling it. Gallup does not include ratings of Congress or congressional leaders in its Daily tracking, and thus, there is no overall job approval rating of Boehner, Reid, or Congress directly comparable to Obama's current 40% overall job approval rating."
Unlike in Australia, you do not have proper opinion polls. They are meaningless. If 40% approve of Obama and 1% approve of his competitors, then he's going to get re-elected. 40% approval rating does NOT mean that the other guy has 60%
