GW Bush approval rating higher than Obama?
I mentioned earlier that I think Obama should be more aggressive in taking advantage of his high approval rating. Since I was following that, I came across this interesting & surprising little factoid:
Presidential Job Approval in Depth
Gallup Daily: Obama Job Approval
------------------- Approve--Disapprove--No opinion
2001 Feb 19-21 62----------21-------------17 (Bush)
----------------- 61----------24-------------15 (Obama)
I'm sure it is too early to tie any real significance to this, but it is interesting to me that Bush's approval rating one month in was *higher* (and disapproval lower) than Obama's is one month in.
