"Poll: Most Americans see 'gloom and doom' ahead"

[WhiskeyGirl]

(RASMUSSEN) With no end in sight to the partial government shutdown, the number of voters who believe the country is heading in the right direction has fallen 11 points over the past week to its lowest level in nearly two years.

Just 17% of Likely U.S. Voters now say the country is heading in the right direction, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey for the week ending October 6. That’s down from 28% the week before and the lowest finding since early December 2011.

Confidence in the country’s direction rose steadily last fall, peaking at a high of 43% the week before Election Day. It fell steadily after that to the previous low for the year to date of 26% in mid- to late July.
