No Actual Poll Results in First 8 Paragraphs of AP Poll Analysis | Politics | AlterNet - http://www.alternet.org/blogs...
"In those first eight paragraphs and 363 words, Sidoti manages to claim a new poll shows the Obama administration has "crashed," taking the coountry from "the euphoria of 2008" to a "funk." To make this claim, she cites exactly zero numbers from the poll. Sidoti does characterize some numbers from the poll, but there's a reason that she's characterizing them rather than citing them. For example: in the AP poll, Obama's overall approval is 54/43, essentially unchanged from July's 55/42 rating. His numbers have dropped from the staggering numbers early in his first couple of months (67/24 in February), but that's old news. Since July, things have been steady." - Steven Perez from Bookmarklet
