Today, 27 percent say they’re satisfied with the “way things are going in the United States today,” compared to 72 percent who see things headed in the wrong direction.

The numbers are particularly telling, depending on which side of the political fence you happen to be on.

Forty-seven percent of Democrats are now satisfied with the country’s direction; A mere 9 percent of Republicans make the same claim.
