Andy Griffith Has Poll Numbers? And They Are Down?

Remember when Andy Griffith made that Medicare ad? It turns out people DO NOT like that Matlock or his support of their health.

You know how bad things are for Democratic political figures these days? Even Andy Griffith's poll numbers have seen a significant decline in the last 2 years.

Our latest North Carolina poll found Griffith at 44/22 in the state for a net favorability of +22. That represents a 25 point decline from June of 2008 when Griffith was at a net +47 (56/9.)

There's not much doubt that it's Griffith's forays into politics, most recently in support of the health care bill, that are driving down his poll numbers.
