Partisan Rating of the Economy

A Rasmussen poll today explains Americans' ratings of the U.S. economy. What's always most striking about such polls is the following: 32% of Republicans rate the economy as "poor," while 61% of Democrats rate it as "poor."

This helps explain why the media talks about recession even in the good economic years of a Republican administration. And it says something about the reliability of polling people about something they know absolutely nothing about.
