Ten for Ten: Rasmussen's New Numbers Show Republicans Ahead on All Ten "Trust More" Issues

Some big shifts here in the GOP's favor.

CNN has a poll out (no link yet; email sent to me by CNN). It finds Obama's approval rate at 55%. Um, whatever.

It also finds that on the issues that matter most to voters (they decide themselves what they are), 48% feel that Obama agrees with them. While 51% feel Obama disagrees with them.

Again, on the issues that matter most to them, personally.

And yet his approval is at 55%. Go figure.

For the sake of comparison: In April, CNN's poll found Obama's support at 63%. 57% of voters then said Obama agreed with them on the issues that matter most to them.

So, he seems to consistently get a 6-7% goose in job approval above the agree on the issues number, which I can only guess must be from his awesome level of competence and ability to successfully turn this recession around.

Harris Poll: It was reported over the weekend the Harris Interactive poll put Obama at 45%.

They're now releasing his approval on the top twelve issues -- not a single one where he commands majority approval.
