Damning in faint praise!
Not in the approve-disapprove format or in something that one can relate to it (like grades of A, B, C, D, and F).
"Excellent", "Good", and "Poor" are clear enough... but "Fair" is ambiguous. "Fair" performance by a seven-year-old violinist is something that one praises a child for. "Fair" performance by an adult on stage is something that you would feel cheated for buying a ticket to see.
Not usable for my purposes. But 31% "excellent" or "good" isn't good for an incumbent Senator.
High turnout sinks Pat Toomey in 2016. If he hasn't been the sick joke that Tom Cotton or Marco Rubio have become, he is far from solid.
