Pollster John Zogby reports in our weekly White House report card that President Obama is coming off one of his worst weeks.

"I am not an ideologue. I call it as I see it. The week President Obama just finished sucked. The Obama administration created the fiscal cliff, has used it as a bludgeon, has 'Chicken Littled' about its impact, and now says it is only a bump, not a cliff. Their message now is, 'never mind.' Add to that the White House is threatening a venerable journalist like Bob Woodward? This is, no matter how you cut it, a failure in leadership and disingenuous, to boot. Meanwhile, Congress sucks, too. There are no heroes this week. No problems solved. This is not zero-sum. This is zero."
