UPDATED: Peggy Noonan, still unfamiliar with public polling

January 11, 2010 2:01 pm ET by Eric Boehlert

Just some more polling data to back up my claim over the weekend that the WSJ's Noonan has no basis to claim that Obama has taken a hit in the polls in the wake of the failed Christmas Day terror attack.

From CNN [emphasis added]:

In the wake of the Christmas day attempt to blow up a U.S. airliner, most Americans remain confident that the Obama administration can protect the country from terrorism, according to a new national poll.

...

Nearly two-thirds of people questioned in the poll say they have a moderate or great deal of confidence in the administration to protect the public from future terrorist attacks, up 2 points from August.
