Since Thursday’s ruling that the individual mandate in ObamaCare can survive as a tax, the Supreme Court’s popularity has taken a dive.
According to a Rasmussen poll released Sunday, 28% of those polled say the court is doing a poor job. That is an 11% increase since last week. Plus, the percentage of those who think the court is doing a good or excellent job has fallen by 3 points from 36% to 33%.
@ByronYork I think the approval ratings for the American people by SCOTUS slipped a long time ago

Rasmussen: SCOTUS approval slips from a week ago, more voters now see it as too liberal and pursuing their own agendas. Shock poll!!

Of course, Supreme Court opinion polls mean little since the justices are not elected officials.
@ByronYork Great! We're gonna vote Roberts out in November! …oh, wait…

Why do we need a poll on the #SCOTUS "approval ratings"? We can't vote them out!!

Still, the poll provides a window into the national disgust over ObamaCare.
