WSJ/NBC: Bush, Republicans Slip in New Poll

[Rose Siding]

"In a hailstorm of unfavorable publicity over a House sex scandal and the war in Iraq, President Bush and his party have lost the political initiative at a critical point in the midterm election campaign," according to a new Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll.

"The survey shows that by 41% to 18%, Americans say recent news developments have made them less favorable toward continued Republican control of Congress; by 34% to 23% they called themselves more favorably inclined toward Democratic control. It also shows a decline in Mr. Bush's job approval rating to 39% from 42% earlier this month."

1. Too bad, so sad....

What goes up must come down.
What must rise must fall...
And what goes on in your life
Is writing on the wall!
If all things must fall,
Why build a miracle at all?
If all things must pass,
Even a miracle won't last.
What goes up must come down.
What must stand alone?
And what goes on in your mind
Is turning into stone!
If all things must fall
Why build a miracle at all?
If all things must pass,
Even a pyramid won't last...
