Poll: Likely voters tell politicians to fix economy

Rasmussen Reports: Importance of Issues Voters Concerns about Economy Hits Highest Level In Over Two Years.

A new national telephone survey finds that 87% of Likely U.S. Voters view the economy this way, well above the importance they place on any other issue on a list of 10 regularly tracked by Rasmussen Reports. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Here's a part that grabbed me:

Nearly two years into the Obama presidency, voters still believe the nation’s continuing economic problems are due more to President George W. Bush than to the policies of the current occupant of the White House.

I think this reflects the success that Democrats have had in blaming Bush for what happened to the economy.   The reality is much more complex than that.  As far as blame, there's plenty to go around.

If anything is going to get better, somebody has to step up to the plate and offer solutions.  It doesn't seem to be happening yet.  Therefore, I think the odds of improvement are less than the odds of things deteriorating.
