Any positive news reported about the President can be savored, especially when we know how the media is gnashing their teeth in despair even as it goes to print. Even so, I really loathe the present poll-driven focus of modern reporting. I wouldn't mind seeing poll results taken out of the daily news cycle. One of the many downfalls of the MSM is the day opinion left the editorial page and started substituting for hard news.
I try my best to ignore polls altogther. They're noise disguised as fact.
I agree about polls, and I do mostly ignore them. But given the media bias, it's "news" to me when a positive poll slips through their greasy hands.
