Bush Gaining Ground On Obama.

This graph from Gallup displays President Bush's overall favorable rating is sitting at 44%. It has been steadily increasing since he left office in 2008. I find it pretty interesting that Bush's approval is 3 points lower than President
Obama. Maybe he should run again...

Unemployment in the Unied States.

This graph from Gallup shows that unemployment has increased from 9.3% in August to 10.1% i September. It is interesting because both parties are claiming that jobs are being created and that they are full time. 

Democratic Nomination for 2012

 This chart show the percentage of people who would support wither Obama or Clinton for the Democratic Nomination for 2012. I find it interesting that most democrats don't approve of Obama but they will still vote for him to be the Democratic Nominee. Overall it seems like maybe switching to Clinton could have something to do with race and possibly sex.

GOP takes over in the fall.

 

 This table shows that the American people are expecting that the GOP will take over the House of Representatives this fall. It's interesting that 50% of Independents think that the GOP will take over even though most Independents tend to lean Democratic.
