So now that we see polls specifically asking about the economy...and they show that Americans think the economy sucks, let me now add another poll that reflects on the economy.
Here we have job approval. The average of polls over many months out there are shown here. The average is 41%. "Job approval "incorporates the sense Americans have about all the things Obama's responsible for, including the economy.
