Posted by Paul Cassell: High Approval Rating for the Supreme Court: http://volokh.com/archives/archive_2009_09_06-2009_09_12.shtml#1252678967
According to this recent [1]Gallup poll, most Americans approve of the way the Supreme Court is doing its job. 61% of Americans approve, compared to 28% who disapprove. This approval rate is slightly higher than in the past few years, apparently because of more support from Democrats. Gallup also speculates that the lack of controversial decisions by the Court last year may have contributed to a high approval rating.
