Roberts Up. Rove Down.

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in General Politics, Polls, Supreme Court

But maybe that’s the plan…

A USA TODAY/CNN/Gallup Poll taken Friday through Sunday finds that 51% of Americans expect ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã…â€œa major fightÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã‚? over Roberts in the Senate. But by 59% to 22%, those surveyed say he should be confirmed for the job.

Roberts’ favorable-unfavorable ratings are a muscular 46%-13%; 19% haven’t heard of him.

In contrast, by 34% to 25%, Americans have an unfavorable view of Rove; 25% have never heard of him. Seen by many as Bush’s most powerful White House adviser, Rove has been in the news lately because of an investigation into whether administration officials illegally leaked the name of a CIA operative to reporters.
