Obama up another point on Gallup today at 55%
I wonder if the media realizes that their "Obama poll #'s are dropping faster then any President before" meme might be over?

1. I always e-mail the gallup polls to CNN and MSNBC. Just so they
get the news from the "blogosphere".... News you can count on!

2. For it to jump the way it has,
he has had to poll at almost 60% the last two days. It's a three day rolling average.

4. My prediction...
If you're right about two very high polling days, here's my prediction for how the media covers it.

Tomorrow - approval jumps to high 3-day number - Media ... crickets
Next day - number starts coming back to earth - Media ... crickets
Next week - number settles back to low- to mid-50s - media ... OBAMA IN TROUBLE! POLLS DROP SEVERAL POINTS IN MATTER OF DAYS!

5. I would take it as a good sign
that Obama is still polling this strong after the relentless media assault of the last few months.

The corporate media is pulling out all the stops trying to take him down, and it just isn't working.
