...Nancy Pelosi, a member of Congress so universally ridiculed and mocked...
|
Let's see which congressional leader is most popular.
Favorability ratings:
Pelosi - 40 favorable, 39 unfavorable
Reid - 32 favorable, 44 unfavorable
Boehner - 19 favorable, 53 unfavorable
Mitch McConnell - 23 favorable, 48 unfavorable
Pelosi's rating among her own party members is 60-20, and 32-48 among independents; Boehner's rating among his own party members is 46-25, and 16-56 among independents.
Thus, the data show John Bohener is significantly less popular than Pelosi both with respect to each individual's party partisans and independents, the rantings here notwithstanding.
