Very interesting statistics. looks like Republicans in general approve of Obama's and Bp's handling of the oil spill. And they are also the one's continue to keep up the chant of "Drill Baby Drill."

And why not. They are more concerned about Sestak and regaining the seat of power. Why abandon now, that effort they started on January 20 2009.

Zogby Interactive: Opinion of Government Response to Gulf Spill Plummets

..excerpts

There are significant partisan differences, with 83% of Democrats calling the spill a "disaster," compared to 32% of Republicans and 51% of independents. (My comment: Why would the Republicans say Obama is not doing a good job handling the spill when a majority of them don't think this is a disaster)

Despite the spill, the percentage of adults who agree that, "Offshore drilling is still a safe, reliable and cost-efficient method of producing oil," remains unchanged from May 10 at 58%. Agreement that expansion of offshore drilling will lead to increased environmental problems is also unchanged at 51%. (Conflicted and confused as usual)
