Eff' a Frank Luntz. AB.com held the most accurate poll of support for President Obama since shortly after his election. The AB.com Obama Approval Rating™ is generally as good a gauge of how well the President is performing as you'll find, but sometimes the results surprise even me. This would be such a time.
After bottoming out at 62% in July, and subsequently losing control of the House, I naturally assumed the Good Ship Barry be sinkin'. Not only was I waaay off, but Obama rebounded to post his second best score ever, nearly reaching the high water mark of 81%, achieved just after he took office.
While I approved of Obama's performance, I really have no explanation for the jump, given the number of "L"s he's taken lately. Anyone care to explain?
Question: What's up with this latest poll?
