"On March 18, 1981, The New York Times ran a brief report on the Gallup poll at the bottom of page 22: ...As the story went on to point out, not only were Reagans "approval" ratings the lowest, but his "disapproval" ratings were nearly three times higher than the ratings of other presidents."
Nov./Dec., 1987 The Myth of the Great Communicator By Elliot King and Michael Schudson
Right you are with that headline from the New York Slimes............
Does anyone actually know that a Gallup Poll on Harry Truman had him at only 20% approval at one time??? It's true!!
What goes down, will eventually go up again!!
But, who cares?? The "poll" taken last November was the ONLY one that counted!!
