A new Pew Research poll suggests that the American public remains substantially unaware that the federal government's
bank bailout program was actually signed into law by President Bush.
47% incorrectly believe it was enacted during the Obama's
administration;
just 34% of Americans answered the question correctly.

Rasmussen reports that American voters are evenly split on the bailout question: "Voters are evenly divided over whether Congress should take
action to help the troubled financial industry or just let Wall
Street work out its problems on its own, according to a new Rasmussen Reports
national telephone survey. Forty-five percent (45%) say Congress should take action, but
44% say Wall Street and the financial industry should take care of their own
problems. Eleven percent (11%) are undecided."
