Poll: Bush's Job Approval Remains Low - Yahoo! News: "WASHINGTON -
President Bush's job approval is mired at the lowest level of his presidency, and public feelings about the nation's direction have sunk to new depths in an Associated Press-Ipsos poll.
People are anxious about Iraq, the economy, gas prices and the management of billions of dollars being spent for recovery from the nation's worst natural disaster.
'There is a growing, deep-seated discontentment and pessimism about the direction of the country,' said Republican strategist Tony Fabrizio, who believes that pessimism is not always aimed at the president and his policies.
Only 28 percent say the country is headed in the right direction and two-thirds, 66 percent, say the country is on the wrong track, the AP-Ipsos poll found.
Those most likely to have lost optimism on that score include several groups that supported Bush in his re-election: white evangelicals, down 30 percentage points; Republican women, down 28 points; Southerners, down 26 points, and suburban men, down 20.
Americans' confidence in the nation's direction has been shaken"

With all the problems our country has right now--No matter who would be in office---would not be popular!

Do you think the Bush administration's cronyism--i.e. "Brownie, you're doin' a great job here"--as well as the Plame investigation and indictments by grand juries of Tom DeLay--and three house ethics violations--on and on it goes--might play a role in their unpopularity?
Frist is now suspected of doing the same thing Martha Stewart went to jail for, but much worse...
I don't agree with you. I think there is an entire dynamic of abuse of power and Americans can see through it pretty well.
This administration is a cabal of war criminals, out for their own and their cronies' enrichment and aggrandizement at the expense of everyone else.
I look forward to seeing them all on the dock in Brussels, next to Milosevic, and then hanged by the neck until dead.
