Recent FOX News poll showed 53% approval rating for Obama. |
|
They did not report it on television. Also, realclearpolitics, who has always used the FOX poll as part of their averageing ignored it. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/05/12/fox-news-poll-election-remains-close-vote-splits-evenly/

3. Yeah, his approval is probably even higher and Fox is skewing the numbers. |

5. Fox doesn't poll anyway |
|
They have a firm that does the polling and their numbers are credible.

2. Actually, his approval rating in that poll is 48% to 43% disapproval. |
|
Favoribility really just measures if you like somebody or not.

4. Your title could be more clear. This Fox "poll" gives Obama 53% approval only among Democrats |

And, I know Obama has higher approval among Democrats than that.
In the bigger picture, it is a Fox poll which means it is clearly biased and, therefore, worthless. But even Fox has modified upward the Democrats chances in November.
So, overall, I think it is a positive for Democrats.
