This doesn't come as a surprise to me - there are a lot of problems we are facing, and people would like to see more in terms of results. Is it fair to expect more? Fair or not it makes things more difficult to get done if you are the President. What is often referred to as "political capital" is simply a reflection of the support the president can point to in challenging Congress to enact his agenda. The lower the poll numbers, the less fearful members of Congress are to take positions and votes against a president.
