Bush's sinking, stinking approval ratings.

Pew Research Center for the People & the Press survey conducted by
Princeton Survey Research Associates International. Nov. 3-6, 2005.
N=1,201 adults nationwide. MoE ± 3.5.

"Do you approve or disapprove of the way George W. Bush is handling his
job as president?" If "Depends": "Overall, do you approve or disapprove
of the way George W. Bush is handling his job as president?"

Approve 36% Disapprove 55%

WSJ had an article today on this poll. Mostly democrats were polled (65%).

Wow! 65% Democrats.

If you consider the fact that 83% of Democrats oppose him and 17% support
him...and 71% of Republicans approve and 29% disapprove...and you do the
math...Bush's approval rating is a lot closer to 43-45%...or exactly where
Rasmussen has him.





This is why these numbers are the way they are. It was skewed from the
beginning.
