George W. Bush job Approval Rating now higher than Obama’s on Gallup
When dubya left office in 2009, his approval Ratings on Gallup stood at a pathetic 34%.

Fast forward to the end of 2010 and now George W. Bush is more popular than Obama. As painful as it must have been for Politico to post this story (and frankly i’m surpri...

Most Popular Pol Poll
A new Gallup Poll ranks the popularity of American presidents, and taking the number one spot with an 85% Approval Rating is that “liberal” the Conservatives love-to-hate, John F. Kennedy. The lore of Camelot “has legs” as they say, even to today’s generation. In close proximity with a 74% approval number, is that darling of the Right, Ronald Reagan. In the “Place” position, Bill Clinton has nudged out Jimmy Carter from last year. Carter still makes the ...

Is liberal anger at Obama overstated?
I noted below that a new poll sponsored by MoveOn finds intense opposition among Obama's 2008 contributors to a deal extending the Bush Tax Cuts for the rich. But it's only fair to note the counterargument: In a general sense, for the past two years the idea that there's widespread anger on the left at Obama has been mostly a dramatic overstatement.

President George W. Bush sees his approval rating rise
George W. Bush is proving that absence, indeed, makes the heart grow fonder.
According to a Gallup Poll released Monday, the most recent ex-president has an Approval Rating of 47%, about double his approval during his final year in office. In his first outing in the poll’s ranking of former chief executives, Bush is still near the bottom, handily defeating perennial basement dweller Richard Nixon, who quit office in disgrace. But he is rising with a bullet, statistically tied with Lyndon ...
That is so rank: Gallup, on the presidents
What do presidential rankings say about America? Apparently, we are nostalgic -- for better economic times (see: Bill Clinton, ranked third) and happier, sun-drenched days aboard the presidential yacht (JFK).

Following Kennedy is Ronald Reagan at 74%, Bill Clinton at 69%, George H.W. Bush at 64%, Gerald Ford at 61%, Jimmy Carter at 52%, Lyndon...
