"In the poll, Obama’s job-approval rating stands at 53 percent, which is an eight-point jump from last month and represents his highest rating in the survey since July 2009."
Some other numbers:
"Just 25 percent say that the Republicans in Congress will bring “the right kind of change” to the country.
...
In addition, a majority (55 percent) believe congressional Republicans will be too inflexible in dealing with President Obama, while an equal number (55 percent) say Obama will strike the right balance.
...
On House Republicans’ goal to repeal Obama’s health care law — an effort that cleared the chamber on Wednesday — 45 percent support eliminating the law and 46 percent oppose the GOP effort."
This fall was an anti-incumbent election about the economy--people want the recession fixed--and not a mandate for the tea party. The R's are going to have to tone down the rhetoric and look like they're trying to do something positive or the polls in the next year and a half may be a whole lot worse. I don't think the hyper partisan stuff is playing well anymore.
President Obama is the most scrutinized man to reside in the oval office in the history of this country. He was given the worst mess in history courtesy of Bush and the Republicans. Bush the worst president in history. Obama has had no help from the GOP in devising solutions to solve problems only obstructionist tactics. Part of the electorate thinks Palin is a serious candidate for God's sake, so this goes to show the lunacy he faces.
This president is solving problems and easily will win reelection despite GOP deceptive marketing. Good news, but not surprising.
Obama really has done an incredible job for inheriting such a mess. First step was stabilizing the economy, second is turning it toward growth (happening now). Next step is reducing unemployment and final step is reducing the debt.
All in good time, but we're no doubt in good hands getting there.

The economy stabilized in 2010. It has been consistently growing for many months now. The next step in recovery is dropping the unemployment rate and then, once there's tax revenue being generated in significant sums again, reduce debt.
Tell me ANYTHING in that that isn't true.
There's an overwhelming sound of crickets on this thread. Hmmm.....
