Poll: Pelosi as Unpopular as BP

Thursday, 30 September 2010 04:08 PM EDT ET

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is so unpopular with Americans that her negative ratings are on par with oil giant BP. According to the Washington Examiner, a Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll shows that Pelosi's negative ratings are at 50 percent -- an all-time high for the Democrat from California. That number is the same as BP's in the immediate aftermath of this summer's Gulf of Mexico oil spill.

Only 22 percent of the poll respondents had a favorable impression of Pelosi, one of the driving forces behind Obamacare.

By comparison, former GOP House Speaker Newt Gingrich got a negative rating of 35 percent, and a positive rating of 24 percent.
