Bad Signs For Bush In History
Bush's approval rating in the Gallup poll fell to 46 percent this week

A Pew Research Center survey released Wednesday pegged Bush's approval at 44 percent

Bill Clinton and Ronald Reagan, who were reelected easily, had approval ratings in the mid-50s at this point in their reelection campaigns and remained at or above those levels into November. But Bush's father, George H.W. Bush, and Jimmy Carter had fallen to about 40 percent in their approval ratings at this point in their races and, after continuing to fall even further, lost their reelection bids

3. "That which does not elect me makes me stronger"
Let's not lick our lips until we see whether the GOP steals the next election, too.

5. Who needs popularity when you have Diebold and the Supreme Court?

4. Remember when he had a 90% popularity.
The fact that real Americans like Clinton more than Bush is always fun to rub in freepers faces.

6. these analysis always leave out the one simple fact about bush's approval
rating... it has been following a nearly linear drop non-stop since 9-11, and there is no end in sight. why on earth would it turn around now, when people are just beginning to get over the "silence is patriotism" b.s.?

bush is toast this fall. GO KERRY!
