Only 26 percent of voters approve of the job Congressional Republicans are doing in handling fiscal cliff negotiations, down 3 percent from a week ago. At the same time, President Barack Obama's approval rating on the fiscal cliff has soared from 48 percent a week ago to 54 percent today.
Only 50 percent of respondents think that there will be some kind of deal in the final few days to avert the cliff. Forty-eight percent now think that the U.S. will go over the cliff.
Americans' optimism on that question has plummeted 15 points in the past week. Here's a look:

The poll follows the failure last week of House Speaker John Boehner's "Plan B,"?which failed to garner enough Republican support to earn a floor vote last week.
The Gallup survey also follows the overall trend of fiscal cliff polling, which has not looked good for Republicans. In a Quinnipiac poll taken two weeks ago, more voters said they would blame Republicans by a 53-27 margin.
