I’ve gotten a few e-mails about the latest AP poll, which gives Obama a 56% approval rating — far above Gallup, Rasmussen, and practically every other pollster. In fact, AP’s survey of 1000 adults has Obama’s approval rating improving over last month, most definitely in opposition to the large surveys taken even in Gallup’s own survey of adults. But even the AP analysis notes that his approval rating seems somewhat disconnected to the “squeamish” reaction to Obama’s policies:

Polling is extremely easy when you only poll members of the White House staff!!!
Geez, even the latest NBC poll has him at 46%.
Positive polling...
Let em and the shock that will hit them all in November will be that much more multiplied. That is what happens when you bury your head in the sand like an ostrich and while they’re doing that somebody comes up behind them and butt ***** them up the ass.
Of course, GLibb will acknowledge THIS Poll. The AP (All Propaganda) is the definitive word he will say. Other polls don’t mean anything. LOL
This is laughable on its face.
Reason for this poll is to get the RCP average back over 50%. The libs will do anything to give the appearance their boy is doing just fine.
CBS, WAPO and the like have occasionally done the same thing. It’s an outlier but a deliberate one.
I agree. You can make his approval rating just about as high as the pollster desires by including a high enough percentage of 'Rats in your sample.
BTW, AP's partner in this poll was Roper. I hadn't heard the name Roper in polling for years, but it appears that they are very accommodating in doing the 'Rats dirty work for them.
90 percent sampling of democrats.
It’s more than an outlier; it’s very likely BS propaganda. Lairs work at AP.
Push poll knowing his popularity is going straight into the tank and he needs to get socialized medicineglobal warming and amnesty bill shoved down the American people’s throats.
Thanks justiceseeker93.

Even the Dems are sick of Dear Reader!!
That tells us they weren't able to get the results they wanted with "likely voters".
Or "registered voters".
Or even "adult citizens".
Pick the pool, pick the results.
AP could have polled their ‘adult’ pet dogs and cats.
That’s a typo! The AP meant 156% approval rating.
I got a call from one of these polls the other night. Usually, I just hang up. But I was curious, so I said I’d take it. They asked me my age and a couple of other things, and then asked if I was leaning Democrat or Republican. Alarm bells started ringing, and something told me I should answer Democrat, but I said Republican. Their response was “Good bye”, and then there was a click from them hanging up on me.
Very interesting.
