you know what's funny? obama is improving in rasmussen and decreasing in gallup (thought, Republican)

[tropolis]

even though obama is at 46 approve/dissaprove today he was as low as 41 approve/50 disapprove a week ago.

meanwhile when obama had over 50 approval on gallup, his rasmussen approval was in the low 20's with a strongly disapprove at around 50.

now today obama is at 29 strongly approve and down to 42 strongly dissaprove.

its odd that a republican and a leaning dem pollster have 2 completely different swings in roughly the same period.

That is why these polls mean almost nothing and people take them to heart.

One day (Rasmussen) is not a trend. Look at the chart to see the direction. Obama had his lowest approval ratings a few days last week.

The pools that coutn are job approval and policies. I did like clinton's policies but did like the man and thought he was smart;much smart in governaing than Obama;but disagreed with his poolices. I like Carter but thought he was not presidentail material.In fact i really ahte to see Carter being so bitter especailly i his book that his aid say he lied many times.
