This is pretty interesting. This is how you view the Gallup Poll data shown here.

Click on one of the tabs marked, Politics, Economy or Well Being.

Then above the data on the table to the right, click on one of the headings to see the graphical display of the data. There is a slider above the map for 2008, 2009, and 2010. It’s too bad they don’t have 2011 data yet.

Enjoy.

This little guy is so cute. Don’t you wish you could give him/her a hug.
