A growing number say they’re “frustrated.” Other options — “basically content” and “don’t know” — remain statistically unchanged. #
Only 28 percent of those who say they agree with the tea party movement describe themselves as angry, down from 47 percent last year. #
Liberals and labor households arerallying around unionsamid calls to strip public employees of collective bargaining and other rights in Florida, Wisconsin and elsewhereand ads condemning union protests, with a surge in members of those groups saying they have a “very favorable” view of organized labor. #
Thefull report(.pdf) notes: #
As the intensity of support for labor unions has grown in union households, overall favorability has remained about the same (69% in February, 73% now). #
There has been no corresponding shift in opinion among conservative Republicans or non-labor households. Very unfavorable views of labor are about the same as they were in February for these groups, as negative views of labor have become no more intense. #
