Poll: George W. Bush still gets blamed for economic woes - The Oval: Tracking the Obama presidency
In a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll taken Friday through Sunday, more than a third of those surveyed said George W. Bush deserved a great deal of the blame for economic woes and a third said he should get a moderate amount of it. Not quite another third called that unfair, saying Bush warranted not much or none of the responsibility.
The 71% saying Bush should get blamed was a modest decline from the 80% who felt that way about a year ago, in July 2009.
What about President Obama?
In the July 2009 poll, a third, 32%, said he should shoulder a great deal or moderate amount of the blame
