Yes, I just corrected it.  GHW Bush and Carter were substantially lower.  The Ford numbers are not on-line.  Let me see if I have them.

Rasmussen Obama (National)

Approve 44%, -1.

Disapprove 54%, +1.

"Strongly Approve" is at 22%, -1.  "Strongly Disapprove" is at  45%, +1.

I'd really be betting this is a bad sample and Obama will bounce up someone time over the weekend.

It still could be a bad sample, which might be out tomorrow or Monday.  If so, we should see Obama's numbers going up.

Disapprove 53%, u.

"Strongly Approve" is at 26%, u.  "Strongly Disapprove" is at  42%, u.

There is a fair chance there is is a bad sample in the mix.  If not we're seeing increased volatility.

Probably a bad sample, but it's starting to look a bit like people are legitimately percieving Obama's tactics as mean. Especially the cancer ad.

It's not so much "bad samples" as it is the fact that Gallup and Rasmussen aren't very good polling firms.
