The poll found a distinct gulf between Mr. Obama’s overall standing and how some of his key initiatives are viewed, with fewer than half of Americans saying they approve of how he has handled health care and the effort to save General Motors and Chrysler. A majority of people said his policies have had either no effect yet on improving the economy or had made it worse, underscoring how his political strength still rests on faith in his leadership rather than concrete results.
For conservatives who think Obama is getting a free ride on his policies.
Might not take the above seriously as it is from the flawed NY Times.

It is poll. The times cant get extra credit for simply reporting the results of its own poll. I'm sure there was a corresponding op-ed piece stating how flawed the polls results were by blaming Bush, Rush or Palin.
