Video: A new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll suggests that after five months in office, President Obama is now being judged for the actions he's taking and no longer just for the promises he made, with growing concerns about the budget deficit and the government intervention into the economy. NBC's Chief White House Correspondent Chuck Todd reports

Also, regarding controversial actions Obama has taken:
-- By a 48-41% margin, Americans favor eliminating procedures like waterboarding to get information from terrorists
-- 52% oppose closing Guantanamo Bay
-- 56% oppose giving financial aid to General Motors, in exchange for the federal government obtaining a stake in it
