Not a big surprise given the results of the 2010 election.
Washington is locked in the worst gridlock they’ve seen in their lifetimes, four in 10 Americans say as they voice dissatisfaction with how President Barack Obama and members of Congress are handling the country’s problems.
More than two-thirds of those surveyed for a USA Today/Gallup poll released Monday say that members of Congress of both parties are putting their own interests ahead of the country’s, while they’re evenly divided on whether the president is more driven by his own interests or the country’s.
Both 2301 and 2302 should read up on the phenomena of divided and unified government to put this in perspective.
- United States Presidents and control of Congress.
- Gridlock.
