(CNN) - A new national poll suggests that Americans think the performance of the House of Representatives deserves a grade of C.
The CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey, released Wednesday as the Obama administration marks 100 days in office, asked respondents to use a grading scale of A, B, C, D and F, where A is excellent and F is very poor.
Eight percent of those questioned gave the U.S. House of Representatives an A, 29 percent a B, 38 percent a C, 15 percent a D and 10 percent a F. The grade averaged out to a C.
The CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll was conducted April 23-26, with 2,019 adult Americans questioned by telephone. The survey's sampling error is plus or minus two percentage points.

so, maybe they can have an A.
