Americans think nation still mired in recession, CNN poll finds

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Nearly 9 in 10 Americans say the country's still in a recession, according to a new national poll.

Eighty-seven percent of people questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey released Thursday morning say the nation's in a serious, moderate or mild recession, and nearly 7 in 10 say things are going badly in the country today.

"Economists may be speculating that the recession is over, but don't tell that to the American public," says CNN Polling Director Keating Holland.

"The good news -- if you can call it good news -- is that the number who say things are going badly has been dropping steadily since last fall -- from an all-time high of 83 percent in November to 77 percent in April and 69 percent now."..More
