Poll-itics: Obama Really Popular...In Two Deep-Red States

By GottaLaff

To add to Paddy's post below, check this out:

President Obama's isn't just coming into office with really highly popularity nationwide -- he's apparently coming into office with really high popularity in states he lost by landslides last November. [...]

• Texas: Approve 62%, Disapprove 35%. This includes 41% strong approval, and 19% strong disapproval.

• Tennessee: Approve 60%, Disapprove 35%. This includes 39% strong approval, and 21% strong disapproval.

For reference, John McCain carried Texas by a 55%-44% margin, and won Tennessee by 57%-42%.

Change is one thing. Transformation is another.*

*I always like to qualify these with a big "for now".
