23% approve of the way Bush is handling his job as President; 71% disapprove.
67% rate Barack Obama favorably, 19% unfavorably
62% think Obama will make a "great" or "good" president, 22% say he will be "so so" or "bad."
From the Quinnipiac release:
American voters believe President-elect Barack Obama when he says, "Yes we can," and say 70 - 11 percent that the economy will get better in Obama's first term, according to a Quinnipiac University national poll released today. Even 50 percent of Republicans say things will get better. Voters also say 56 - 28 percent that Obama will restore public trust in government, and believe 69 - 22 percent that his election will lead to improved race relations, the independent Quinnipiac University poll finds.
Comments
When that many people say it can get better that quick it goes to show how bad everything really is for non-beltway dwellers.
The major thing to look for is if Obama can harness the power of people believe "yes we can". Healthcare will be presented.
