68% of Americans approve of Obama's handling of the economy, so I'm not so sure how this is going to work out for the NRCC.

The NRCC likes to pretend that the stimulus isn't popular. It's good propaganda to say "We are targeting Hawaii Congressmen for voting for the unpopular stimulus". Somehow, I don't think Abercrombie is losing too much sleep over this.

In case you haven't noticed, the stimulus bill really isn't that popular.  According to a recent poll by Rasmussen, only 38% of Americans think it'll help the economy.  A lot of that is pessimism in general, but you have to think that Republicans weren't just picking names out of a hat with this one.

You know, I've heard about enough outlier Rasmussen polls lately that I don't really care what he comes up with. The latest poll on pollingreport.com is a CNN poll with 60% support.
