__Kratos__ Posted June 19, 2007 #1 Share Posted June 19, 2007 WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President George W. Bush's approval rating has dropped to 29 percent in an NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll released on Wednesday, his lowest mark ever in that survey, which also found only 23 percent approved of the job Congress was doing. Bush's approval rating slid 6 points from 35 percent in April, NBC said, citing a decline in support within his own Republican Party. Sixty-six percent said they disapproved of Bush's job performance. In the poll, 62 percent of Republicans approved of Bush's job performance, down from 75 percent in April. Thirty-two percent of Republicans in the latest poll disapproved of Bush's performance, up from 21 percent in April. NBC tied the drop in Republican support to Bush's efforts to promote an immigration reform measure that many conservative Republicans oppose. Polls have also shown a decline in Bush's popularity due to the war in Iraq. More of the article here... Link ------------------------------------------- Ouch.

EmpressStarXVII Posted June 19, 2007 #2 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Well, I wouldn't say I am surprised. That is even lower than Clinton's lowest approval isn't it? That has to hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

signal7 Posted June 19, 2007 #4 Share Posted June 19, 2007 What's even worse, this includes 'chads', which he fervently spends most of his free time creating. It's akin to the exit polls during elections, ask someone in the media to sum up a table, then throw a story. The fella' needs to try and swing his favor towards economic re-structure, as opposed to spending more and more money in the pursuit of the oil fields. This will make home life difficult, yes; but, I feel Laura really ought let up off of him a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
