I think "approval" polls are dumb.

I "disapprove" of the job Mr Obama has done, but that doesn't mean I want any of the alternatives to be elected. The only important poll question is "who ya gonna vote for?"

...to the people who get excited about Obama's disapproval rate and those who disapprove and don't plan to vote for him.
