If you’re wondering what that is, it’s the D/R/I breakdown of the AP poll of adults that ‘shows’ the President at a 60% approval level. Hot Air doesn’t say, but I will: that’s roughly the same ratio that this AP poll was reporting in May of 2009… which is to say, before Barack Obama and the Democrats put on big hob-nailed boots and started jumping up and down on their collective reputation.
In other words: um. No.

PS: And in the field of ‘burying the lede’… the actual headline of that AP article should have been “Former President George W Bush hits 50% approval rating in ridiculously Dem-heavy poll.” Put another way:
Apparent-ly!
[UPDATE] Heh. Jim Geraghty and I really do think somewhat alike.
I think they are getting scared and desperate. At least that’s the only thing I can think of for this kind of skewing. Anybody got any other ideas?
