NEW YORK CITY-Polls continue to paint a dim picture for President Barack Obama, and GlobeSt.com’s latest is no exception. Asked last week “Will Obama’s job plan create jobs?” the overwhelming majority--77%, in fact--responded that it would not.

David Johnson, CEO and co-founder of Strategic Vision, an Atlanta-based public relations and public affairs firm, tells GlobeSt.com that he’s not at all shocked that the 461 readers who weighed in don’t expect the plan to yield results.

“If you look at the number of Americans who feel that the country is moving in the right direction, who are optimistic about the future, they basically correspond with these numbers,” Johnson says. “The other problem for Obama is that he is losing a lot of his magic. We’re seeing this in his job approval numbers.”
