Wow. We all know Bush is falling in the polls, but when you see it presented like this, it’s, it's.... mind boggling! :) Look at the red in the right hand column.

Prey tell HOW you can have negitive numbers when refering to people? Yes that is the difference between the two but, it makes it look like less then nobody is supporting him.
Geeeesshhhhh I wonder if the "press" is working overtime to get these results? You keep telling people how bad, awful, terrible he is and they start to believe it.
hmmmmm

I doubt if they're doing any more work than normal.
Pollingreport.com collects polls that all news and polling organizations are always carrying on and collects them into one location. They've been doing this for at least four years that I know of...
In other words, his high approval ratings are there, too. Just not on that page since it only goes back to September.

That's "Pray tell..." not "Prey tell...." Prey is something that's being hunted. I'd think a schoolteacher would know better. :lol:

It doesn't make it look like no one is supporting him. There are the numbers of approvers and disapprovers. The interesting number to me is the red right hand column, the change. His disapprovals are about as low as they'll go among Dems and Independents. But he's continuing to lose support of Republicans.

As HMW said, last year the poll numbers were better for him. But now that they're bad, Bush supporters want to blame the pollsters. Makes me laugh.
