Poll Economic optimism hits new peak under Obama - CNN.com
The poll finds 52% describe the U.S. economy as very or somewhat good, while 48% call it very or somewhat poor. That marks the first time since Obama took office that significantly more people describe the economy as "good" than "poor," and only the second time since then that a majority has described the nation's economy as "good."
The last time significantly more Americans called the economy "good" than "poor" in CNN/ORC polling was September 2007.
The last time Americans were positive about the economy was before W sent it over a cliff and retired to Texas. It has been a long hard road back.
