Did anybody else notice that Obama was at 51% in the daily Rasmussen poll today?

I know these daily polls bounce around a lot. But I found that encouraging.

Overall, 51% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the president's job performance. That’s the president’s highest level of overall approval in more than a year. Forty-seven percent (47%) at least somewhat disapprove.

Isn't Rasmussen the poll that always leans right? napi21 Jan 2012 #1
Yeah they lean right but still usually within the margin of error. Although 2-3% makes a huge diff FarLeftFist Jan 2012 #2

At least that's what Chris Matthews said on his show tonight. If it does lean to the rt, that would mean Obama's #s are even hugher than 51%!

difference. Scott Rasmussen is a conservative and they tend to poll more conservatives.
