Also:

* 19% angry at President Obama, as compared to 44% who were "angry" at Bush in September 2006.
* 46% say Obama is a "uniter" versus 39% who say he is a "divider".
* 27% say economic stimulus helped the nation's economy versus 17% who said it hurt.

1. Anyone who buys into the villager's "conventional wisdom"

will live in a state of perpetual surprise.

2. Obamas numbers must be way better than that...

If this is what Faux Gnus is reporting.

Interesting... I would have never guessed.

3. From Fox New? Geez, I think I'll add a couple of percentage pts. for Dems, if it's okay?

10. Fox has a legit firm that does their polling

It's not like Glen Beck is doing the polling.

11. PPP showing similar numbers

For the first time since December PPP finds Democrats leading on the generic Congressional ballot, albeit by the insignificant margin of 43-41.

7. Can you fix it - you say divider twice when the first one is supposed to be uniter. Thanks.

:)

12. Uniter 46% Divider 39" Mixed/neither 9% Don't know 6% It's on page

#4 of the report...

Obama is more of a help as almost 50% feel he unites.



HOWEVER: IT's NOT ALL GOOD NEWS!! In Jan 2009 80% thought Obama was a UNITER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jefferson_dem]

16. Done.

Thanks. :)

[Drunken Irishman]

8. 46% say Obama is a divider versus 39% who say he's a divider?

:shrug:

[activa8tr]

14. other way around. But in Jan 09 80% thought he was a uniter!!!

So he's made some enemies along the way.

[valerief]

9. You can't divide by zero. nt

[MidwestTransplant]

13. ha ha ha. Freepers will now hate Faux.

Though look for a "correction" next time around which will flip it back to Republicans.

[activa8tr]

15. Fox is still working on the way to spin this in their own favor...I'm sure

Faux probably let their spin doctors go early for the weekend... calling them back by Sunday morning for the "hard" stuff.

[David__77]

18. People are MUCH more approving of Obama than they were of Bush.

There is no comparison. The key for us is infrastructure and political mobilization. It may be "better fewer, but better" come next congress, but that's ok.

[Peacetrain]

19. If that is a Fox poll.. you know his numbers are ever better!!

That is just wonderful

[Clio the Leo]

21. "The biggest reason for the shift is that the party is becoming more unified"

(which seems odd after this week, but I believe the WH/Labor blow up will prove to be a blip on the radar)

[Scurrilous]

22. K & R

:thumbsup:

23. All the generic ballot says

is that people aren't blaming any one particular party for the nation's problems.

Inevitably that means, we'll still likely lose seats, but ultimately it will depend on the die-hards and the most enthusiastic voters and maybe their base isn't as enthusiastic as officially believed.
