Surge of Optimism About Country
A new CNN/Opinion Research poll finds 43% of the public feel that things are going well in the country, up 14 points since December. The survey indicates that a majority of Americans continue to think that things are going badly in the country today, but that figure has dropped from 71% at the end of last year to 56% now.
Said pollster Keating Holland: "We haven't seen numbers this good since April of 2007. One likely reason for the change is the public's growing optimism about the economy."
