So far most Americans seem to be impressed with how President-elect Obama is handling things. It’s now been a full month since he was elected (and it’s still over six weeks until he actually takes office) and his Rasmussen approval rating is now sitting at 66%.

According to the Rasmussen poll released today John McCain is now up by 1% point over Barack Obama (48% to 47%.) This is the first tracking poll released which covers only post convention polling (Friday through Sunday.)

Barack Obama appears to be getting a big bounce from the Democrat’s convention last week and perhaps another bounce from John McCain’s bewildering choice of the completely unqualified Sarah Palin as his VP nominee.
Palin was mayor of a town of less than 10,000 people named Wasilla, Alaska just 2 years ago.

The latest Michigan Rasmussen poll has Barack Obama ahead of John McCain 47% to 39% in the state. Michigan has been considered a possible opening for the Republicans due to problems with the Michigan primary (where Obama wasn’t even on the ballot.) But it appears that the Democrats in the state have “unified” behind their […]
