They do show a general attitude. And it is not news that most people think Bush has taken this country in the wrong direction. And that is WITH the support of a republican controlled congress. That speaks volumes.

It could be a big comeback on the way to a majority support!!!
But with the way Iraq is going I doubt that will be the case. And the republicans are going to eat it in November.

Or more appropriately WHERE did they supposedly read that from?
Last I heard, Bush's "approval" ratings were still plummeting to record new depths...
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Washington, May 12 may (PL) President George W. Bush's popularity reached its lowest mark in his presidency, with only 29 percent of the people considering the nation is heading in the right direction. Bush's job-approval rating fell 6 percentage points from April, according to poll results released by the Wall Street Journal on-line edition. At least 69 percent of people consulted said "things have pretty seriously gotten off on the wrong track." Only 24 percent considered "things in the country are going in the right direction."
The latest Harris Interactive poll indicated that only a modest 18 percent of people consulted think Congress is doing an "excellent or pretty good job."
The occupation of Iraq, the immigration debate, gas and oil prices and the country's economy remain as key concerns for the general public. http://www.plenglish.com/article.asp...D)&language=EN

America was at war in eighteen sixty-four. The Union of northern states was fighting the Confederacy of southern states. Each had its own constitution.
Under the Union constitution, a national president was to be elected every four years. Eighteen sixty-four was such an election year. And even though a great civil war was being fought, citizens of the north prepared to choose a leader. http://www.voanews.com/specialenglis...05-18-voa2.cfm
Elections must go on!  | |
