Remember this Number: 94%

That's the percentage of Americans polled in a recent nationwide survey who had a favorable impression of the United States Postal Service.

Ninety-four percent.

The Postal Service, in an Associated Press poll conducted in mid-December, outranked all other major federal governmental institutions in the impression that Americans had of the organizations.

Fifty-eight percent of the respondents said they had a "very favorable" impression of the Postal Service. In comparison, 27% said they had the same impression of the Supreme Court and only 11% held the same regard for Congress.
