My prediction: Bush will break the "Nixon floor" between Feb. and May
Using this graph, I’ve done a simple extrapolation:

Nixon’s lowest approval number was 24% in August, 1974. This was the lowest rating of any president since the statistic was measured. Extrapolating lower and higher trends, I estimate Bush will break the Nixon floor between February and May 2006.

Enjoy.

4. They keep setting the bar lower and lower ...
... watch for this Late Breaking News on CNN within the next six months:

"The WH confirmed reports this morning that Mohammed Al-aliar has been captured outside of Mosul. Al-aliar is thought to be the second cousin, twice removed, of a man who once shared a cab with Osama Bin Laden's secretary's neighbour's nephew."

5. But I wonder how many people know who Zargawi is or what he does?
I know more than a few people who think he's the U.S.-appointed president of Iraq. The level of uninformed-ness in this country is rather frightening.

9. they keep people that way
people are too tired after they get home from work to care about whats going on in the rest of the world. If we had a siesta like most countries then people would have enough time to sit and read the paper or watch the news. But then again, they would read and watch our shit of media sources.

6. Depends on energy prices.
If home heating goes through the roof this winter, Bush's poll numbers go through the floor. Otherwise, I think he's fallen pretty much to his lowest level. There are still a lot of sheeple out there.

7. He'll probably get a tiny boost from the Iraq elections next month
But I suspect it won't even be measurable. After that, they have nothing to brake the freefall.
