U.S. Supreme Court Justice Approval

While it still fares much better than the legislative branch, a recent New York Times/CBS News poll indicated that the U.S. Supreme Court's popular approval rating has dipped to 44 percent. According to a New York Times article about the poll, the court's rating has declined over the past quarter-century from a high of 66 percent in the late 1980s. Predictably, many of the comments to the article reference Citizens United.
