    The Latest Newsweek/Princeton Poll finds that 48% of registered voters would be more likely to vote for Democrats, compared with 42% Republican.

    President Obama's approval ratings have jumped substantially to 54%, up from 48% in late September, while those who disapprove of the president dropped to 40%, the lowest disapproval rating in a NEWSWEEK Poll since February 2010.

Quoted Text


The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Tuesday shows that 27% of the nation's voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as president. Forty-three percent (43%) Strongly Disapprove, giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -16 (see trends).

The Presidential Approval Index is calculated by subtracting the number who Strongly Disapprove from the number who Strongly Approve. It is updated daily at 9:30 a.m. Eastern (sign up for free daily e-mail update). Updates are also available on Twitter and Facebook.

Overall, 45% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the president's performance. Fifty-four percent (54%) disapprove.

Quoted Text
The midterms not only dealt a big shock to Democrats but also sent a message to President Barack Obama. According to the new POLITICO Power and the People poll, only 26 percent of the public believes he will be reelected as president in 2012.

This difference in expectations could mislead the president if he is listening to the Beltway chatter — right here in D.C., he may just find a lot of comfort in this assessment by insiders, and that may lead to actions that don’t fully adjust for the sea change that has occurred among the general public.

It's interesting that you link to Rasmussen...



In our recent elections, according to the NY Times:
Rasmussen Polls Were Biased and Inaccurate...
Quinnipiac, SurveyUSA Performed Strongly.

How much do these polling institutes charge for their polling services?
It appears to be a very profitable/lucrative business with little or no oversight.
