Bush approval rating 29%
President Bush’s job-approval rating has fallen to its lowest mark of his presidency, according to a new Harris Interactive poll. Of 1,003 U.S. adults surveyed in a telephone poll, 29% think Mr. Bush is doing an “excellent or pretty good” job as president, down from 35% in April and significantly lower than 43% in January.

1. Dick Nixon is looking up at this from Hell
and he's thinking, "Finally, somebody's gonna beat my record for lowest poll numbers..."

7. It's the roaring twenties all right
and it's going to be brief... the way Bush is heading
he'll be in the teens soon. This feels a lot like the last days
of Nixon... at the end everything just started collapsing and
you KNEW in the pit of yourt stomach that the end was coming.

here it comes !!!

5. Where does Harrus generally place among polls?
Higher or lower than average in Bush approval ratings? Middle-of-the-road?

15. Full speed ahead...They own the voting machines...Their agenda hasn't
Edited on Fri May-12-06 03:23 AM by LaPera
stopped nor will it change...BushCo knows they will keep the republican majority or they wouldn't be so cocky...The machines, polls, they know, they have it in the bag...Why not, they can't win without cheating and the Dem's refuse to look at it, (as long as incumbents can keep their minority jobs)...

So tell us what do the republicans have to lose by stealing it...Dem's are so afraid of speaking up & looking like its sour grapes...It so sad, and now becoming very pathetic!
