The Homa Files

President Obama’s job approval numbers are looking good … if you just look at the polls conducted by CNN, CBS, and NBC.

But, Gallup and Rasmussen are back to running counter to the mainstream media.

* * * * *

Gallup is now reporting that 45% approve and 47% disapprove … the bump from extending the Bush tax cuts seems to have faded.

Rasmussen’s most recent Presidential Approval Index – which subtracts String Dis-approvers from Strong Approvers – is down to minus 17.

And, Gallup is reporting that President Barack Obama’s approval ratings during his second year in office were the most partisan and polarized of any president’s first two years of his presidency …

Nearly a 70-percentage-point gap in how Republicans and Democrats evaluated his performance.

Obama’s approval among Republicans averaged 13 percent, while Democrats’ approval of Obama’s second year averaged 81 percent.

Uh-oh …
