Clear proof SCOTUS should ….?
May 15, 2007
Crime & Consequences reports here on a new Gallup Poll, which finds that “a bare majority of the public approves of the job the Supreme Court is doing, and that compared with last fall, the court’s approval ratings are down among Democrats, independents, and Republicans alike.” The poll is intriguing, but the graph showing significant migration of recent approval/disapproval rates perhaps shows that these poll numbers do not really show much.
I would be intrigued and grateful if any readers can find something significant in these poll numbers. Of course, I read the recent dip as clear proof that the public is getting increasingly concerned that the Justices are taking such a long time to decided Claiborne and Rita.
