28% Bush Approval - Harris Poll
President Bush’s Job Performance at Lowest Ever in Harris Poll
Majorities View All U.S. Political Figures in a Negative Light

President George W. Bush’s job performance is currently viewed positively by only 28 percent of U.S. adults, the lowest since he took office. Seven in ten adults view his job performance in a negative light, including almost half (48%) who say his job performance is poor. Since February, the President has dropped from one-third (32%) who viewed his job positively and 67 percent who gave him negative marks.

Vice President Dick Cheney is also at his lowest job approval – just one-quarter of adults view him in a positive light while over two-thirds (68%) view his job performance negatively. This is down from February, which was his previous low, when 29 percent saw his job performance positively and 67 percent saw it in a negative way.

These are some of the results from the latest Harris Poll of 1,001 U.S. adults surveyed by telephone between April 20 and 23, 2007 by Harris Interactive®.

3. These are who I refer to as "The Twenty-Nine Percenters"
Those who would still swear he was doing a good job even if he were to waterboard a baby on national tv.

Kool Aid: it's what's for dinner.

4. Poor = 48%
(equivalent to strongly disapprove).

That means half of America hates his guts.

6. These numbers do not bode well
Bush, Cheney and the Republican party did not fare well in this poll, but neither did Pelosi, Reid, or Congress in general. This is not good news for anyone. Hate to say it, but it looks like Democrats are squandering an opportunity to take advantage of a really unpopular bunch of Republicans.

8. THAT is why the Democrats
Edited on Sat Apr-28-07 08:55 AM by spotbird
must distinguish themselves as more than the anti-Republican party.

People desperately want honest, hopeful solutions, I want it. If the Democrats give that to the public there is no amount of tampering that will keep the Republicans around, but the major candidates aren't even close.

7. Who are these 28%?
I thought I heard that in Ohio Governor Taft reached the teens before he left. There is still room for decline.
