(Community Matters) A very telling statement: “While 88 percent of Democrats support the president, Republicans are evenly split on whether their party’s officials are doing a good job.”

while Obama’s 51% job approval rating is down slightly from a post-election high of 55%, it remains well above the 25% approval rating for GOP congressional leaders. The job rating for Democratic leaders is higher (37%), though more disapprove (55%) than approve of their performance.
