Cindy Sheehan Watch: Still Unfavorable in the Polls
Rasmussen Reports has Cindy Sheehan: 31% Favorable 39% Unfavorable
September 6, 2005–Americans today have a slightly less favorable opinion of Cindy Sheehan than they did a few weeks ago. Today, the grieving mother who maintained an anti-War protest outside of President Bush’s ranch, is viewed favorably by 31% of Americans. That’s down from 35% in mid-August.
Thirty-nine percent (39%) now have an unfavorable view, little changed from 38% in the earlier survey.
Sheehan’s numbers are a bit more positive than Michael Moore’s ratings (23% favorable) and roughly comparable to Senator Ted Kennedy (32% favorable). However, as an elected official with very high name recognition, more people have an unfavorable opinion of Kennedy than Sheehan.
