If you visit some of the poll sites (which would bore you since they would give you facts that are relative) you would find the McCain reached his highest approval rating EVER during the Obama/Clinton war for the nomination.
Not many folks out there right now going after the President on health care or anything at this moment.
Fact is, and I told you this before.....we are in a primary in one party while the other party has none....this is what happens in that case.
None of what I am saying indicates a Democratic win or loss in November, but I cannot understand how you can rely on, and get some kind of solace from, polls that are conducted at this time in an election cycle.
If you check on personal approval ratings over the years, you might be chagrined to find it is no indicator whatsoever of how the elections will go.
