Current Events » in reply to All the other polls show much stronger support for the stimulus package

The support goes up as you go back in time.

Which is not surprising. The most recent poll on that list has 38 percent support as the bill currently stands.

A certain metaphor seems to be cropping up a lot:

This bill is like a rotting corpse. Every day this thing sits out in the sunlight, it starts to stink more. Public support has already dropped below 50 percent. It’s impossible to get everyone to salute an omnibus bill like this, but as the details get more examination, there seems to be growing evidence that there’s not all that much stimulus in the stimulus.

"People are running scared in the Senate because this bill is stinking up the place."
