know it.

The Fox poll reflects Fox reality. The real numbers are clearly really bad. Shrub's mad PR dash this week apparently didn't work.

:hurts:

Flush time for Chimpy and Che--e--Ney,

so IMHO I subtract 5 points from both :)

the actual score.

Different polling companies use different methodology. Fox bends the numbers towards the high end, but they lose the same amount of points every poll.

36% approval rating, and the first poll to show Kenny Bunkport's precipitous drop from the upper 40s..

When faux news rates him this low.

I would guess around 34-35%.

I wonder how much lower they actually are now especially if Fox over samples and slants towards Republicans.

EDIT: Nevermind, it didn't "give the fuckstick a bounce." Yay!

Do you remember all those people who thought that bush was making a mess of things and it was up to him to clean it up? Well, guess what, suckers, bush never cleans up his messes. We told you so.

That is a contributing factor to his decline in approval. Those suckers are finally catching on that bush can't do anything right.

You read this Excellent + Good = Approve: Fair + Poor = Disapprove

35% approve of this guy, Wow, that's high!

Great post.

He's even starting to lose the cultists, too. Ouch.

But, will it translate into anything if the dems don't soon start wrapping this clown around the necks of the other candidates and porentials?

Howard Deans 'culture of corruption' (and incompetence) would seem to be a good beginning.

After all, Bush won't be running for anything other than running after campaign donations, and these donors need to be shown that these guys won't be in power and will be unable to deliver the sweetheart deals.
