Americans have a better view of Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney today than they did a year ago, according to a newly released poll.
Will tonight’s address to the nation help him turn the tide more in his favor?
A USA Today/Gallup poll, conducted Aug. 20-22 and released today showed 48 percent of Americans held a favorable view of him and 46 percent an unfavorable view.
That’s an uptick from mid-July when Gallup says “significantly more” Americans held an unfavorable view of Romney. The poll though said Romney’s numbers still fell below President Obama’s numbers — 53 percent of Americans hold a favorable view of the president.
