Some quick fun with the transitive property. Item one:
Nearly half of all Americans — 48 percent — disapprove of how [Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.)] is handling her job as Speaker of the House in a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll released Monday, while 39 percent approve of her performance … That puts her approval rating at roughly the levels Newt Gingrich had in his first year as Speaker of the House.
Item two:
Newt Gingrichhas joined Eric Cantor’s new effort to remake the GOP for the future, a Cantor spokesperson confirms.
Now, obviously the relevance of a Speaker of the House is different than the relevance of a point man for the GOP’s rebranding effort. And Gingrich’s current favorable ratings, while low, are hard to compare to his approval ratings circa 1995. But he’s never been very well liked by the electorate, as CNN implies in making this comparison. It’s strange that the GOP would consider Pelosi “radioactive” (as the Republican National Committee does in a new press release) with a 39 percent approval rating while turning the even-less-popular Gingrich into a national spokesman.
