Obama’s coverage remained in the negative territory last week, where it’s been for all of 2012, but the mix of negative and positive messages about his presidency did moderate somewhat. Last week, the gap between negative and positive narrowed to 34% vs. 22%. One reason was a generally well-received surprise visit to Afghanistan, where he stressed the U.S. desire to draw down its forces.
