From the New York Daily News:
Talk about "high" marks!
Even after admitting to smoking crack cocaine, Toronto Mayor Rob Ford has a higher job approval rating than President Obama, thanks to the commander in chief's disastrous Obamacare website rollout.
A new poll Friday shows Ford still has a secure 42% approval rating among Toronto voters even after his drug scandal — topping Obama's approval rating of 41%.
Ford's numbers post-scandal are actually higher than the 39% approval rating he posted in late October, before he admitted to smoking crack cocaine, according to a Forum Research survey of 1,049 Toronto voters released this week.
A Forum Research poll from two weeks ago, on Nov. 6, showed he had a slightly higher approval rating at 44%.
Though a large portion of Torontonians still seem to approve of Ford's job performance - an overwhelming portion, 60%, say Ford should resign.

I realize this is an apple to oranges comparison.. but I also think if there was a poll run asking if Obama should resign, I think the numbers would be around 40%
