People looking for help when their budgets are overstretched have options, thanks to cheap loans. But despite his pledge to heavily regulate useful products like these, President Obama still finds favor with Americans when it comes to his economic policies.

A Reuters UK report by JoAnne Allen shows that according to public opinion polls, “large majorities” of Americans remain on board with the president’s plans to revive a sagging economy. His bipartisan approach has also gained favor.

Americans are optimistic

A Washington Post-ABC News poll found that 68 percent of Americans approve of how Obama is doing, while 64 percent support the $787 billion economic stimulus package and the foreclosure support package. A New York Times/CBS News poll marks 63 percent as Obama’s current overall approval rating, with over 75 percent of Americans claiming they’re “optimistic” about the next four years

On the flip side, those polled were quick to find fault with Republicans for their divisive stance. Sixty-three percent of them felt Republicans had “opposed the economic stimulus package for political reasons rather than policy concerns.” As anybody knows about politics, however, opinion loans itself cheap; it’s a matter of which way the wind is blowing.
