Do you think Obama is doing a good job handling the transition to presidency?

With six weeks before taking office, President-elect Barack Obama is having one heck of a honeymoon. A new CNN poll gives Barack Obama a 79% approval rating in the way he's handling the transition. Nearly eight in 10 Americans questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey are giving the president-elect the thumbs up when it comes to his handling of the transition. Seventy-nine percent approve of Obama's performance so far during transition, with 18% disapproving. Obama's approval rating is 14 points higher than the approval rating for President-elect George Bush in 2001 and 17 points higher than President-elect Clinton's rating in 1992. Obama's current approval rating is also more than 50 points higher than President Bush's current approval rating, which now stands at 28% -- with 71% disapproving of the way Bush is handling his job as president.
