| Description | President Obama’s approval ratings has climbed to its highest point in nearly a year and opinions of Congress are up too, a new poll Wednesday found.
Fifty-three percent of Americans surveyed for an Associated Press-GfK poll released Wednesday said they approve of how Obama is doing his job.
In November, just after the election day in which the president said Democrats got a “shellacking,” his approval rating in the same poll stood at 47 percent. Obama’s approval was last at 53 percent in this poll in early March 2010, before his health care reform bill was passed in its final form.
Americans’ views of how Obama is handling the economy also improved, with 47 percent approving, up 6 points from November. |
