About this Show
The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer is the command center for breaking news, politics and extraordinary reports from around the world. Tune in weeknights from 5-7pm ET on CNN.
It seems as if CNN/ORG may have arbitrarily added another 04% to their CNN/ORG poll of 44% taken just yesterday to bring today’s newly reported rise from 44% to a new total of 48%. “In the most recent CNN / ORC poll, he got the approval of 44% of Americans.” (CNN.com Jeremy Diamond ‘Survey: Obama get Thumbs Down from the Troops, December 22, 2014). Ms. Dana Bash reports that poll number at 48%.
Wow! Somebody has been rubbing Aladdin’s Lamp and making wishes grow! Perhaps, Ms. Dana Bash’s pollsters like the President 04% more than the pollsters who report to Mr. Jeremy Diamond. Or could be that CNN/ORG has retained the services of Ms. G. Paltrow, who is known to swoon whenever speaking of her beautiful President, to recount their polls. No cheating! lol
