(CNN) — A new national poll suggests that President Barack Obama is personally more popular than his policies.
The CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll, released Monday, also indicates that 63 percent of Americans approve of how Obama is handling his duties as president. One in three questioned in the poll disapprove.
Democrats overwhelming approve of how Obama is handling his job as president; 61 percent of independents agree. Only 28 percent of Republicans say the president is doing a good job in office.
"Americans have two different assessments of President Obama. One, personal. The other, policy," says CNN Senior Political Analyst Bill Schneider. "What does the public find most controversial about President Obama? His policies, much more than his personal qualities."
OFA Note:The GOP leadership has still a lot of work to do to convince its voters to oppose Obama's policies as he is trying to bond them with his personality.
