LA Times: Palin and Obama Approval Ratings Within a Few Points

From the Los Angeles Times:

"But Sarah Palin's poll numbers are strengthening.

"And President Obama's are sliding.

"Guess what? They're about to meet in the 40s.

"Depending, of course, on which recent set of numbers you peruse and how the questions are phrased, 307 days into his allotted 1,461, the 44th president's approval rating among Americans has slid to 49% or 48%, showing no popularity bounce from his many happy trips, foreign and domestic.

"Riding the wave of immense publicity and symbiotic media interest over her new book, "Going Rogue," and the accompanying promotional tour, Palin's favorable ratings are now at 43%, according to ABC. That's up from 40% in July.

"One poll even gives her a 47% favorable."
