In an instant poll conducted just after the President’s address to Congress tonight, CBS found that Obama succeeded in selling his proposals to viewers, and boosted his image on jobs.
Eighty-three percent of speech watchers approved of Obama’s proposals, while 70% thought Obama shares the same priorities for the country as they do (up from 57% before the speech).
Fifty-nine percent thought the President has a clear plan for creating jobs. Forty percent thought so before the speech.
