Gallup will be back down to 52/41 within a week, don't get too excited.

The analysis by Gallup of their poll says the bump will probably be gone by next week.

Sometimes you get one of those samples.  No biggie.

Technically though, right now (starting in mid-September) to the next few months is when Obama should be bouncing.  At least that's what the chart is telling me.

Just as I told people. Legislative achievements (or their lack) and economic conditions would matter more.

I haven't seen these posted on the last 2 pages, sorry if these already have been.

Tennessee Obama Approval (MTSU): 46% approve, 48% disapprove

Florida Nobel Prize: (Insider Advantage)
33% think he deserves it
47% think he does not

New Jersey Approval and Nobel Prize: (PPP)
46% approve, 45% disapprove
30% think he deserves the prize, 56% think he does not

Maine Approval (Pan Atlantic): 58% approve, 38% disapprove

Pennsylvania Approval (Susquehanna): 50% approve, 37% disapprove

There's good news for both Democrats and Republicans. His approval in Tennessee is surprisingly high, while in New Jersey it's surprisingly low.

This is almost certainly because both of the polls are way off.

Well the NJ poll is of 2009 likely voters so it makes sense when you take that into account(considering the sample was Obama +4).

It did, but then the insurance company cut it off over the most minor of technicalities.  Tongue

His visit should be fairly helpful to Corzine.

It's a college poll (Mid-Tennessee State University) in a state that has been little polled:
 


Tennessee. If that state is close (really a statistical tie), then there should be some interesting polls coming up. If the poll shows a genuine move in popular support for Obama, then we ought to see much more green appear (CO, FL, IA, MO, MT, NC  -- maybe IN and NE-02 again).

Of course it is a college poll, and it might have some limitations.

Go a few posts north. Even Rasmussen has him @ 57% among LV. Quinnipiac at 55%. And the NYT poll isn't even from RV, but from all state adults and this includes many Hispanics, Blacks etc. who are not likely voters, but who approve.

That's because they measure "likely" voters: Notice that in the 2008 election only 58% of all New Jersey adults went to the polls and voted for Obama with 57%. So what do we know about the other 42% that did not go to the polls ? They could be a really Obama-friendly but silent crowd and that's pushing up his numbers among adults.

Or it could just be more NYT BS.
