Rasmussen bump seems to be only coming from Republicans(up to 29%) so I assume it is just a bad sample, as Obama is still under 50% with Indies.

58-40 (nc, -1) today

Obama taking the "steering wheel" and axing capitalist failures is probably not a bad thing for his polling numbers.

Rasmussen today:

59% Approve (+1)
39% Disapprove (-1)

First time below 40% since March 4 ...

38% Strongly Approve (nc)
27% Strongly Disapprove (-3)

"That’s the first time his Approval Index rating has reached double digits since the first week in March."

Now add South Carolina, where Obama has more approval than does the Governor, someone supposedly having a chance to be a Presidential or VP nominee.

SurveyUSA now supports the Crantford & Associates poll:

Do you approve or disapprove of the job Mark Sanford is doing as Governor?

41% Approve
55% Disapprove

http://www.surveyusa.com/client/PollReport.aspx?g=fa7fe67e-60d1-4167-999c-fc2f6dbda8cd

Not so hot numbers for the "great Republican rising star in 2012" ...

Do you approve or disapprove of the way President-elect Barack Obama is handling his transition?

80% Approve

Germans are gullible people.  Remember, these are the people that elected Hitler.

Yeah, it's only the nazi-loving Germans that approve of Obama by 9-1.

And not the Italian, the French, the British or Spanish or even the fascist Canadians ...

While the crosstabs of this poll look very weird (young voters strongly disapprove of Obama, olds approve), I think the overall approval is more accurate for KY than what SUSA showed a week ago.

I love the D+16 partisan split in this poll.

It's an adult poll, so it shouldn't be that surprising or far off from reality (more minorities, more non-citizens, more youngster, therefore the sample is more Democratic).

Even if you adjust it for 2008 Exit poll data, his numbers are at 63-27 ...
