Gallup released their latest generic ballot poll today, the same one that spread like wildfire last week and found an historic ten point spread between Democrats and Republicans — in favor of the GOP.
Now, that same poll, taken weekly, finds Americans evenly divided between the Democrats and Republicans
After the president’s vacation, good housing numbers and better unemployment numbers, well, I guess Americans are as fickle for the GOP as the GOP is for them.
Read it and, well, rejoice!
“Last week marked the return of President Barack Obama from his 10-day vacation, and included his national address to announce the official end of combat operations in Iraq. The president’s three-day job approval rating rose to 47% for Aug. 29-31 — a level it had reached only once since mid-July. Last week also brought media commentary in the aftermath of conservative talk-show host Glenn Beck’s massive rally in Washington, D.C. It is not clear if these or other factors affected Americans’ voting preferences as measured by the generic ballot.”
