The OBL Poll Bounce Fades

It’s all over, according to Gallup.

Among partisan groups, independents’ approval rating of Obama dropped the most in the past week, from 47% to 42%, with a smaller decline among Democrats. Republicans’ approval of Obama spiked to 21% during the first week after bin Laden’s death from 10% in late April, before falling back to the 15% range, where it has held since.

This still seems insanely high considering how unhappy voters are about the economy.
