In the poll, Bush's job approval rating is at 39 percent among registered voters, a drop of three points since September, when his rating had increased to its highest level in months after he gave a series of speeches on national security leading into the fifth anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. The three-point drop, however, is within the poll's margin of error of plus-minus 3.5 percentage points.
The survey, which was conducted from Sept. 30 to Oct. 2 of 805 registered voters, comes in the wake of unfavorable news for a Republican Party trying to hold onto its majorities in Congress. A week ago, the Bush administration declassified portions of a National Intelligence Estimate, which called the Iraq war a "cause célèbre" for Islamic militants (although the NIE also said that success in Iraq could reduce the number of them wanting to carry on the fight).
