[ananda]

24. Average of the last five Bush polls in January:

Approve: (33 + 31 + 34 + 27 + 34)/5 = 32%
Disapprove: (66 + 68 + 58 + 67 + 61)/5 = 64%

25. Little Change in Negative Images of Bush and Cheney (Gallup / April 09)

April 3, 2009
Little Change in Negative Images of Bush and Cheney
Favorable ratings for both are at or near their all-time lows
by Lydia Saad

PRINCETON, NJ -- Neither George W. Bush's deliberate silence about the Obama administration nor Dick Cheney's ready criticism of it appear to have altered U.S. public perceptions about either man. The former president and former vice president are each viewed unfavorably by 63% of Americans, very similar to where they stood with the public in their final White House years ... http://www.gallup.com/poll/117250/Little-Change-Negative-Images-Bush-Cheney.aspx

[jenmito]

8. Yup, with their "grass-roots" protests...

[AtomicKitten]

5. It's a teabagger bump!!!!

[polichick]

9. Yeah, more and more are deciding they don't want to be lumped in with the loonies!

[AtomicKitten]

22. yep - ugly ignorance doesn't play well on the tee-vee.

[Laelth]

20. Karmuppance.

[Amonester]

10. As long as they'll keep supporting torture...

GOPigs stand NO CHANCE of gaining ANY #s.

In fact, they'll only LOSE MORE #s.

[Cali_Democrat]

18. I've been thinking this also

Rethugs are really being very stupid about this. Instead of condemning torture, they just say that it worked!!!

:wtf:

I don't even think they realize the asinine position many of them are taking.

11. Looks like Obama is holding his own with Independents and moderate Repubs. Wingnuts are imploding

their party with their extremist views.

[Cha]

12. It seems like a sign that

people are searching out the news on their own and the admin is getting through to Americans in spite of the distractions the corporatemedia tries to come up with each and every day.

[democrattotheend]

13. Damn, beat me to it

I was just going to post about that.

[jenmito]

15. You gotta wake up pretty early in the morning to see the Gallup Tracking Poll

before me. But I only post them when they're good. (They are supposedly updated 1pm ET every day and I ALWAYS check.) :D

[Proud Liberal Dem]

14. Yup

Sure sounds like Obama's "socialist agenda" is really tanking with the American people.
:eyes: :sarcasm:

[question everything]

16. And this really kills them (nt)

[firedupdem]

17. Excellent! n/t

[Davis_X_Machina]

19. Why a tracking poll...

...at all, less than 6 mo. into a first term, more than 18 mo. before a mid-term election where the President isn't even on the ballot?

They just keep polling, hoping the numbers go down so they can declare a failed Presidency.

[Renew Deal]

21. I don't want to live and die by the tracking polls

:banghead:

[jenmito]

23. Nobody said you had to. n/t

26. Defuses the Repuke talking point on torture
