Woo-Hoo! *'s approval rating down 10 pts from Dec. says CBS news
Edited on Sat Jan-17-04 06:35 PM by Ilsa
Had him at 50%. Bush vs unnamed Dem was 45% to 43%, a statistical tie for their poll!

I guess folks don't feel that much safer with SH captured; might be PO'ed about *'s immigration policy, OT policy. etc, etc.

Here's the link:

2. The mis-admin is sitting around thinking...
... what to do to get the poll numbers up? Let's try offending the King family, sparking a protest during a time of rememberance then appointing a conservative judge by executive order, next let's show em we care about future space exploration by cancelling the Hubble. That oughta cheer em up!

4. You are right. Get ready for a 'diversion'....
The MK trial won't quite cut it; this will be something BIG.

3. Seems like the Mars thing was the straw that broke the fiscal
conservatives back.

(CBS) A CBS News /New York Times poll shows that the election year is starting with a White House race that resembles the ultra-close and hotly-contested race of 2000.

If the November presidential election were held today, 45% of voters say they would vote for the Democratic candidate and 43% would vote to re-elect George W. Bush. Late last month, the President held a 49% to 40% edge. The standing today is similar to what it was in November 2003, before the capture of Saddam Hussein.


If things keep see-sawing the way they have been up until the GE, the last month before the election is going to be brutal. I wouldn't put anything past these guys. They find OBL, invade Syria, or MIHOP a terrist attack. Or all three for a trifecta! :scared:

6. So the Democrats should point that out...
and just keep hammering away at what desperate losers the Bush junta are. "Why they're so desperate they'll pull Osama out of the deep freeze!"

"This time if there's a terrorist attack, it will be their fault!"

"If a fucking sparrow falls out of the nest, it's their fucking fault!"

7. The corporate media will shill
for him after the SOTU speech on Tuesday night to give a false bump. I will continue to say that cabal is unraveling on a daily basis. Of course when they groomed Bush for President they forgot to take into account that he is a jinx and never succeeded at anything so this is what they get.......

10. More from the approval ratings article:
Snip
"Just over half of Americans think Mr. Bush is in charge of his administration, and about a third think others are running the show." snip

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/01/17/opinion/polls/main593849.shtml

And on my original post I got the numbers backwards on Bush Vs Dem: it should be Bush 43%, Dem 45%.
