The latest CNN USA Today/Gallup poll is out with astounding news:
President Bush's job approval rating climbed to 55 percent since winning re-election Nov. 2, the highest since the start of the year, according to a Gallup Organization poll for CNN and USA Today.
The poll conducted Friday through Sunday also found that 65 percent of Americans say the country is "greatly divided" on major issues, and 63 percent said the president should pursue an agenda that has support from both parties.
One of the issues on which Americans are split is Iraq, according to the poll by Washington-based Gallup. Forty-eight percent said they favored going to war and 46 percent said they opposed the conflict. Fifty-one percent said the U.S. didn't make a mistake by leading an invasion of Iraq and 47 percent said it was a mistake. That's about the same as it was before the election.
Bush's approval rating was the highest since a Jan. 9-11 poll found 59 percent of adults approved of the job he was doing. In an Oct. 29-30 poll, 48 percent approved of Bush's performance.
Gallup interviewed 1,015 adults for the survey, which has a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.
We all knew it...but somehow I still think they (the Left) should've seen it coming
