Default Bush at 33%

From those fine, unbiased folks at FoxNews:

President Bush's job approval rating slipped this week and stands at a new low of 33 percent approve, down from 36 percent two weeks ago and 39 percent in mid-March. A year ago this time, 47 percent approved and two years ago 50 percent approved (April 2004).

Approval among Republicans is below 70 percent for the first time of Bush's presidency. Two-thirds (66 percent) approve of Bush's job performance today, down almost 20 percentage points from this time last year when 84 percent of Republicans approved. Among Democrats, 11 percent approve today, while 14 percent approved last April.


Of course, over at Fox this is getting only the most minor of mentions on the front page, so here's a link.

[/ QUOTE ]Congratulations, you are past the threshold of pain.

From here on until approval ratings of exactly zero percent, you won't feel the difference.

[/ QUOTE ] Would you want the candidate of your preferred party to win in the coming presidential election ?

In choosing that candidate, would you look at his approval ratings at all ?

I don't have a preferred party.

But if I did, I would be looking at whether I agree with his stance on the issues, not what a bunch of random people thought of him.

Me care about, I am rolling in laughter, because the country was getting on the right track according to Bush supporters two years ago. I can't wait for November...

In addition, views on the economy are glum; most Americans rate the current economy negatively, and twice as many say it feels like the economy is getting worse rather than better. These are just some of the findings of the latest FOX News national poll.

How is that possible? We're only at 3% inflation!

With two years to go, there's still hope for Bush to push the Grand Ol' Party to new records and outdo Tricky Dick with terrible approval ratings. That sounds like a fun gamble, anyone willing to lay odds?
