Does it occur to you that post election polls are for losers? Bush's poll numbers could go down to single digits and Al Gore and John Kerry still wouldn't be president and the Congress wouldn't be Democrat. Do you really, really think, after losing two TWO elections to an overall weak candidate, that people like Karl Rove aren't looking at the big picture and if IF polls were important, do something about it. Take those poll results to bed, cuddle up with them, even nurse on them for a while in secret (I won't tell anybody) and dream, dream. When you wake up in the morning it will be: President Bush, Bill Frist and Tom Delay making all the decisons.

There were *tens of thousands* of black people stuck in New Orleans. Ruth Ann Dailey used a tiny amount of anecdotal evidence to claim that some of the victims aren't as ticked off as the "Bush haters". Wow! Ms Obvious strikes again! It would be amazing if it didn't break down that way. 40% and falling, suckers. Keep throwing up that anecdotal evidence in the face of overwhelming fact. Maybe you'll get Bush down to 20% before you are done. So the right-wing media find a dozen black people who aren’t ticked off at Bush and this is supposed to be a representative sample?

In reality, a 60% approval rating for Roberts isn't so hot given the facts a.)most people don't follow SC nominations that closely; b.) Roberts isn't being voted on by the electorate; and c.) Clarence Thomas--one of the most divisive nominees---had an approval rating of 63%. And if you seriously believe AWOL George doesn't pay attention to approval polls--you're seriously deluded. Bush spends tens of millions each year doing polling--why do you think that is? Here's one reason--a popular President has an easier time pushing through an agenda than someone who is a lame duck or perceived as unpopular.

If he wasnt up for the highest court in the land I might approve of him too. Bush is the most poll-dependent and savvy president we've ever had. While I like Brazille as a person, I'm not going to put much stock in the thoughts of the person who ran one of the most horrible Democratic campaigns in history.
