Scott Walker: Job approval low because the headlines are always negative
http://host.madison.com/wsj/news/local/govt-and-politics/scott-walker-job-approval-low-because-the-headlines-are-always/article_5f9c3f40-7d31-5d57-9174-8ab42a8dba5b.html
The latest Marquette Law School Poll found those who viewed his job performance favorably dipped below 40 percent again after it had climbed above that threshold in March.
Respondents also viewed the states direction and budget situation more negatively than positively, though the trend is moving in a positive direction.
Asked about why that might be during a phone call with reporters from Mexico where he is leading a trade mission, Walker blamed the media.
The headlines are always about negative and bad things so its no wonder that people feel that way in the polls, Walker said.

I'm amazed that these shlubs get elected to anything higher than dog catcher.
I stopped trying to figure it out. There are lots of gullible, stupid people in the USA and the mass media in the US is nothing but right-wing propaganda.

Yep... And that's how How it can be that fucking high. Brain dead, mouth breathing, shit kicking, knuckle draggers who have been carefully cultivated, for decades, by education cuts, RW radio and the likes of faux snooze.

and hard core racist. He's also really dumb, a dullard, and will do whatever rich people tell him to do. He has a certain steadfast following here in Wisconsin who all fall under some, or all, of the the above labels.
