Bush Losing His Base, Hits New Low
"Angry conservatives are driving the approval ratings of President Bush and the GOP-led Congress to dismal new lows, according to an AP-Ipsos poll that underscores why Republicans fear an Election Day massacre."
"Six months out, the intensity of opposition to Bush and Congress has risen sharply, along with the percentage of Americans who believe the nation is on the wrong track." The poll "also suggests that Democratic voters are far more motivated than Republicans."
Key findings:
- Only 33% of Americans approve of President Bush's job performance, the lowest of his presidency. An astonishing 45% of self-described conservatives also disapprove of Bush
- A majority say they want Democrats rather than Republicans to control Congress, 51% to 34%, including 31% of conservatives
- 73% describe the nation as "on the wrong track," including 60% of conservatives.
The key is to keep the pressure on, repubs when pushed against the wall will do anything and everything to hold onto power and will swiftboat their own mothers to do so. I hope the dems play offensive til november because I can see them falling asleep and getting whacked. We need to give a shout out to the former CIA analyst who skewered Rumsfeld yesterday, he took Rummy's own words and threw them back at him. The right wing will try and swiftboat this guy, but he was in the CIA for 2 years, I doubt he is a partisan player......
