And yet Gorby is one of the most despised and hated men in Russia, despite thet fact that the poll thinks he did a way better job than either of his successors on almost every measure of well-being. How do you explain this?

Look at the figures again. Putin does better in every category than Gorbachev except General Psychological Climate, Situation in the Army, Activity of the Organs of State Security, Ethnic Relationships, and Political Activeness of Citizens. He does far better than Gorbachev in Economic Condition on the Country, Battle against Corruption, Standard of Living, and Timeliness of Receiving Pay. He does better than Gorby on Democracy and Human Rights, too.
Nu, zayats, pogodi!
