Voters are increasingly displeased with President Obama's handling of the economy, but a new poll finds most Americans still think George W. Bush is responsible for the nation's dismal financial state.
According to a new Quinnipiac poll, 54 percent of those surveyed say Bush is responsible for the "current condition" of the economy, compared to just 27 percent who blame Obama. Among self-described independent voters, a key 2012 voting bloc, the number shifts slightly: 49 percent point the finger at the former GOP president, while 24 percent blame Obama.

This is getting beyond maddening.
If things were so bad, it should have been easy for obama to do anything to show an improvement.
But no, he made it drastically worse and they still blame bush.
Disgusting.
Yes, get ready for a lot of this pouring out of the back end of the donkey! And their complicit socialist hacks in the MSM. The lies and spin that are coming our way for the 2012 election will make Clinton look like a boy scout and patriot.
It is sad what the portion of the electorate that supports this kind of crap, has let this country turn into....my dog won’t even dump on a newspaper any more.
Is the car broken? Right now?
Are you gonna fix it or not?
Are you not being paid to fix it?
So, why aren’t you?
They can “blame” Bush all they want in their funny polls.
Obama is the name on the ballot in 2012.
One question: “Are you better off today than you were 3 years ago?”
Let’s see these leftist idiots name one thing that Obama has done to improve the economy.
Oh I’m sure the RDI breakdown of the polls will be a hoot.
Let them think this is a good strategy.
REAL men don’t blame others.....elect Bachmann 2012!!!!!!
and yet not one of them can actually explain WHY Bush is responsible....frigging sheep
BS..
this won’t save his punk ass this time....he’s a one term President...
As long as they blame both and don’t vote for either Bush or Obama in 2012, I won’t care which one they blame the most.
Exactly, the MSM IS part of the progressive movement. They don't care what they report as long as it is negative for conservatives. And, just because people in certain cities, states in the country are complete idiots, they shouldn't underestimate the rest of the country that's paying attention. The msm has become “a reality show” a joke on themselves but, that is what happens to those who sip the koolade.

Why do you believe this poll?
The propaganda squad is at it again...voters DO NOT BLAME BUSH...only zero’s little bitty percent that will stand by their man even if they’ve lost their job, home, car...that’s all folks. A very large percent realize it is the economy stupid...it has only gotten worse since he has been in office...
Hopefully, the people will consider how Obama and the democrats have managed the crisis since they took over
I have used the same analogy but damn libtards are so stupid they could not grasp the simple concept.
