Rasmussen Poll on Cheney Hunting Accident

Rasmussen has it’s first poll out over the Cheney hunting accident HERE:

February 16, 2006--Twenty-seven percent (27%) of Americans believe that the recent hunting accident involving Dick Cheney raises serious questions about his ability to serve as Vice President. Twice as many, 57%, say it was "just one of those very embarrassing things that happens to all of us."

The survey was conducted Tuesday and Wednesday night. Cheney spoke publicly about the incident for the first time on Wednesday. Sixty-six percent (66%) of Americans say they have been following news about this story somewhat or very closely.
Thirty-six percent (36%) of Americans have a favorable opinion of the Vice President while 41% have an unfavorable view.

Thirty-nine percent (39%) say the United States needs stricter gun control laws. Fifty-two percent (52%) disagree


So only 27% of Americans think that the accident raises “serious questions” about the VP’s ability to serve as VP……………………One would not get that idea from the unhinged coverage coming from the most left leaning members of the MSM………

Embarrassing, you bet…………Unfortunate, absolutely……………..More than a hunting accident, not a chance and if you are in the media and pushing that angle, then you flat out have a political agenda your pushing…………………………
