Who's to blame?

In a USA Today/Gallup poll taken on Mar 21/22, only 7% blame Obama for the AIG bonuses, and only 8% blame Geithner. Nearly half (46%) blame AIG management and 19% blame Congress.

So far -- at least over the weekend -- the outrage is not focused on Obama. And this poll was before he gives his major address on the economy tonight -- and before the big Wall Street rally Monday (nearly 500 point jump in the DOW).

Moreover, Obama's 7% rating has to mean than far less than a majority of even the Republicans don't put the blame on him. So much for Boehner's all out attempt to bring down his popular support.
