Mainstream media.  Despite their reporting high support, there was a
fall-off of around 10 points in the first week alone.  There's a
difference between support for eliminating the problem and support for
the administration's plan, and has been from the outset.  Same for
Clinton's so-called popularity - there's a difference between
satisfaction with apparent performance, which relates to the condition
of the economy, and how he's viewed as a person.  In the latter case, If
I'm not mistaken, his negatives are higher than his positives, and the
negatives continue to rise.
