Remember the Big Labor resurgence? Neither do we, but we ventured back 29 days into our archives, and there was the Washington Post’s E.J. Dionne declaring on NPR that Gov. Scott Walker’s success in passing legislation curtailing the power of unions was a victory for those labor monopolies: “What [Walker and the GOP] have done is they have mobilized Democrats and the labor movement–Democrats in a way President Obama wasn’t able to in 2010, and the labor movement, as it’s never been mobilized before.”
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Sunday shows that 21% of the nation’s voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as president. Thirty-seven percent (37%) Strongly Disapprove, giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -16 (see trends).
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows that 76% of Likely U.S. Voters see the economy as a Very Important issue in terms of how they vote. Still, that’s down from 86% in February and at the lowest level since May 2008. Voters have consistently ranked the economy first or second in importance among 10 issues regular surveyed on by Rasmussen Reports for several years. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
