If you went by MSM coverage you’d never in a million years know it…
Raleigh, N.C. – While support for oil exploration off the coasts of various states sharply decreased in the aftermath of the BP oil spill, support in Louisiana remained very high, measuring at 77% support, to only 12% opposition, in PPP’s last poll of the state in June. While support has nearly returned to previous levels elsewhere, support in Louisiana has, if it were possible, also increased, to 81%, with only 9% not in favor. By a 32-21 margin, voters say the spill has actually made them more supportive of drilling off the state’s coastline than less supportive, with 48% saying it has made no difference on their opinion. In June, the “less supportive” group edged “more supportive,” 31-28.
Louisianans’ severe disapproval of Obama overall, 35-61, mirrors their disdain for his efforts in the cleanup, 32-61. George W. Bush’s handling of Hurricane Katrina, by contrast, is viewed barely negatively, 44-47; the response in June, 34-58, was more in line with Obama’s, 32-62. A full 54% now think Bush did a better job dealing with crisis than Obama, who gets the vote of only 33%.

Those are some scary numbers. 70% of blacks disapprove of Jindal? The 18-29 group is SPLIT on Obama approval. Some things never cease to live down to expectations.
We were living 3 blocks from the Dome and were among the “First Responders” when the first bus arrived in Houston and we are now living with the results of BO’s handling of the spill. If people were voting honestly, 100% of them would say that GW handled the situation better!
Yep.
