The Rasmussen poll conducted over the weekend of May 30-31 asked a key question designed to give us perspective on Obama's current popularity. The question was whether the current problems "are due to the recession that began under the Bush administration or to the policies Obama has put in place since taking office." In other words, who's to blame, Bush or Obama?
By 62-27, voters say Bush is still the culprit.
As long as this opinion remains prevalent, Obama will continue to enjoy high popularity. But when it changes, as it inevitably must, we will see him begin a long, long fall.
And this is the key measurement to watch.
Dick Morris explains why Obama's personal ratings are still high. But he predicts they will drop significantly over time.
