Vital Signs

Rasmussen Poll:  Country direction Right v Wrong  31% v 64%
Real Clear Politics Poll (RCP average): Congress Approval v Disapproval 25.8% v. 67%
RCP avg., President  49.3% v. 44.4%
Misery Index 10.9 per government statistics, per Shadow Gov't Statistics est 28
Gold 1386.90 @ 1:37pm cst 2/18/11

Take some of this with a grain of salt.  Don't believe Obama has this much support.  Numbers are probably being padded.  Perception is everything.  Likewise for Congress, since it is Republican.  Misery index reflects too low an estimate for inflation and unemployment.  Gold is up today and is in a rally lately.
