CNN Poll: More Americans view Obama as a failure at 6 months than Bush at same point

And Obama didn’t have the Supreme Court fight over hanging and pregnant chads hanging over his presidency. From Real Clear Politics:

Thirty-seven percent (37%) said they believe the Obama administration is a “failure,” while 51% consider it a “success” and 11% say it’s still “too soon to tell.”

An identical question was asked of the Bush administration in an August 2001 CNN/Gallup/USA Today survey. At the time, 56% said the Bush administration was a “success” while only 32% considered it a “failure.” (Link)

And the poll “includes and oversample of African-Americans.”
