MORE POLL ANALYSIS LIKE THIS, PLEASE

We usually get poll results framed something like "60% disapprove of X" but we aren't given any information on why people disapprove.  For example, I suspect that peoples' disapproval of Congress includes contradictory opinions, some believing Congress is too liberal and others that it is too conservative but we rarely get this information, so I commend CNN for doing better than this norm:
Jake Tapper: CNN Poll Shows 1 in 5 Who Disapprove of Obama Think He’s ‘Too Conservative’
