Pelosi & Cheney
 
Cheney and Pelosi Have Poor Ratings in Common

Quote:

PRINCETON, NJ -- Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and former Vice President Dick Cheney have little in common politically, but they receive almost identical image ratings from the American public. According to a May 29-31 Gallup Poll, 37% of Americans have a favorable view of Cheney and 34% have a favorable view of Pelosi. Both Cheney and Pelosi are viewed unfavorably by at least half of Americans.

Interesting to see that more Independents have a favorable rating of Cheney over Pelosi too, by over 10% margin.

I like the 'never heard of/no opinion.' There's a big difference between not having heard of them (HUH?) and not giving a shit about them. :lol:

not really - Either way its not a positive nor a negative in this case.

Shawnee123 06-05-2009 10:22 AM

Well, you know I'm going to find the odd angle in anything. That's what I do.

Yeh - I just found it interesting that after the last election and all the gains of the D party that the rating of their "Leader of the House" still suxass.

Hey hey hey...

They are definitely two of the most unpopular politicians. I know what I think of Cheney, anyway. ;)

classicman 06-05-2009 10:35 AM

and whats your opinion on Pelosi?

glatt 06-05-2009 10:37 AM

Well, those of us who were on the fence about her and feeling like we should have some loyalty because she's a leader of our party finally came to our senses with her pathetic handling of the CIA briefing affair. I'd be pleased if we had another speaker. She's not worthy of her post.

Yeah, that's it in a nutshell.

And, for good or bad, public perception is important in our leaders. We learned that with Bushie.

Strange that she is still so popular in her own district. I guess she is raking in the stimulus money for herself.

Harry Reid has been unusually quiet too - I wonder if he is trying to stay below the radar...

Brain bleach, STAT!!!!!

Pretty funny. :lol2:

Cheney is more popular than Pelosi. Not really surprised but Polls are stupid so I can't really support the conclusions.

morethanpretty 06-08-2009 01:22 PM

No...look again. He has a lower rating of "Unheard/no opinion"
He has a higher unfavorable rating also.

TheMercenary 06-08-2009 01:36 PM

Looking at the numbers alone they are statistically not really significant.

34 vs 37; 4 points.

50 vs 54; 4 points.

the last category does not even count.

classicman 06-08-2009 02:56 PM

He isn't in office anymore, I would like them to have that in common as well.
