This speech from President Bush on the Economy is helping Barack Obama in the polls. Bush is completely incoherent as always.
The New CNN poll out today was-conducted after the VP debate-on October 3-5. The survey questioned 1,006 people. It shows that 53% of the voters support Barack Obama and 45% support John McCain.
President Bush may be part of the reason why Obama’s making gains. Only 24 percent of those polled approve of Bush’s job as president, an all-time low for a CNN survey. “Bush has now tied Richard Nixon’s worst rating ever, taken in a poll just before he resigned in 1974, and is only 2 points higher than the worst presidential approval rating in history, Harry Truman’s 22 percent mark in February 1952,” says CNN Polling Director Keating Holland.
More Americans appear to have an unfavorable view of Gov. Sarah Palin, and that may also be helping Obama in the fight for the presidency. Forty percent now have an unfavorable view of Palin, up from 27 percent a month ago and from 21 percent in late August, when McCain surprised many people by picking the first-term Alaska governor as his running mate.
“A majority of Americans now believe that Sarah Palin would be unqualified to serve as president if it became necessary, and her unfavorable rating has doubled,” Holland said.
People are waking up-the poll shows that 56% of voters think the McCain’s policies are the same as Bush, which is a 6% increase over the last poll. The light bulb is finally coming on, I was hoping for at least 70 %, after the debate tonight even more will see the reality of the situation.
