Poll: Feinstein’s popularity sputtering before ’12 election
By David Siders, Sacramento Bee
Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s public approval rating remains positive, but enthusiasm for re-electing her is far less than in previous years, according to a Field Poll released today.
As Feinstein prepares to run for re-election next year, California voters are inclined to support her, 43 percent to 39 percent, according to the poll.

That four-point margin – the same as Feinstein posted in a Field Poll earlier this year – is her smallest ever in a pre-election year. First elected to the Senate in 1992, her margins of pre-election year support ranged from 19 percentage points to 29 percentage points before, the poll said.
Yet Feinstein’s public approval rating remains favorable, with 46 percent of voters approving of the job she is doing, according to the poll. Thirty-one percent disapprove, and 23 percent have no opinion.
I sent both Senators Feinstein and Boxer an email comment when we attacked Libya. Senator Boxer’s office sent me a reply with her position within a few days. Senator Feinstein’s office sent me the “same canned repsonse” only the other day.
At least they should have come up with their own responses not sent a pre-written one which it looked like many senators used.
Reid the same way.
YOU DON’T REALLY THINK THOSE BOZOS SIT READ OUR COMMENTS DO YOU?
They only speak words of wisdom when they want be re-elected and then right afterwords they are gone on trips to secret ville with Chimp& Dales in hot pursuit of a fast TIME AND PLEASURE.
I think gravity caught up with both Boxer and Dianne body persuasion method’s.
