..opinions such as these are NOT what I hear in the news or read in the paper. What is going on? Is the press still in love with the President, or am I simply listening to a small minority of the public.

I asked the same question a couple of months ago, John. I think the answer is that there is no need to be able to read and write, much less THINK, in order to either vote or respond to a poll. The people you and I talk to and work with on a daily basis are, I imagine, able to read headlines and may even listen to the evening news once in a while. Those that we think are a majority apparently don't count for much in the polls we hear so much about.

Puzzles me too.
