The number of Americans satisfied with the country’s direction has nearly tripled over the past year, but a majority of them remain upset with where the United States is headed, according to a poll released Wednesday.
Three-in-ten Americans, or 30 percent, are very satisfied or somewhat satisfied, a Gallup poll found. That number is dwarfed by the 68 percent who are unhappy, including 41 percent who described themselves as very dissatisfied.

So wouldn’t that indicate less than 32% would vote for the current dufi in charge?
Oh but, don’t worry they really, really want 4 more years of this crap./sarc
Hopefully this will be reflected with the outcome of what will happen on November 6th.
So the other 32% must want more of our ambassadors raped and murdered by muslim pigs?
Makes perfect sense, this is America after all.
These polls are stupid. The left is unhappy because Obama isn’t take us to Marxism far enough fast enough. The right is unhappy for exactly the opposite reason.
Without breaking it down, this information is meaningless.
This is the one I always come back to. Reading RCP polls, they almost always have 0bama in the lead by some margin. But the ‘direction’ poll is telling...and it defies logic that if the huge majority thought the country was headed in the wrong direction, then why oh why would they elect the guy who brought us there?
Gallup should be expecting another call from the DOJ now...
I’ve always thought that stat was meaningless or subject to gross misintpretation.
How are they disatisfied?
Many on the left may be dissatisfied that Obama is not taking us into socialism fast enough. Just saying you’re dissatisfied doesn’t mean much.......
Not if the sample includes Marxists who think we aren’t enslaving the rich fast enough.
may indicate that 32% are p.o-ed that he did not implement Socialist Nirvana during his first three months in office.
There is also a 68% chance that Gallup will now be sued.
Maybe the people want more unemployment, more debt, more low middle class income, higher gas prices, higher food prices etc.
After all Gallup tells us the One is winning by at least 5 points. So...I guess they mean the wrong direction as in Obama is not doing enough of his magic. Huh?
“GALLUP POLL: 68% ARE UNHAPPY WITH COUNTRY’S DIRECTION”
Those racists...
That 32% just about reflects the amount that are on the permanent , never need to work, don’t want to work, don’t know how to work, DOLE! It is a permanent underclass that the Democrats must keep on their plantation if they want to succeed at elections.
68% of people being unhappy will not translate into a win for O. His 2008 posse will either be mad enough to vote for Romney or they will just stay home.
Sadly many of those will still vote for the status quo
...and probably half of the 68% are unwittingly responsible for putting us in this state, by virtue of their own votes and political mindset.
Meanwhile… 90% of the lamestream media are fully satisfied with the direction of the country and much better off than they were four years ago.

Laid-off twice in the last four years. Never in the previous 25.
Yes! I want more!
Remember the loser from ‘08: “oh, thank you Mr. President for graciously taking time from your busy day!!!”? Even he has had enough.
