LANSING -- President Obama may have only gotten a modest bump in the national polls follow the raid to kill Osama Bin Laden, but the Latest Epic MRA poll shows that he got a big one in Michigan. His approval rating jumped up nearly 10-percent to 53-percent. His unfavorable ratings dropped to 40-percent.
Obama is doing a lot better than most politicians, including Governor Rick Snyder, who got only a 38-percent favorable rating in this latest poll and 42-percent gave him a negative rating. Even though the state is going in almost a completely different direction from the one under Jennifer Granholm, nearly as many think its still going in the wrong direction under Rick Snyder.
