Another Poll Shows Obama Approval on the Rise

A new CNN/Opinion Research poll reflects the same uptick in President Obama's approval rating found in yesterday's ABC News/Washington Post poll. The president's approval went from 44% to 54% last month to 49% to 48% in this month's poll.

Said pollster Keating Holland: "President Obama's approval rating appears to be fueled by dramatic gains among middle-income Americans. The data suggest that the debate over the payroll tax is helping Obama's efforts to portray himself as the defender of the middle class."
