’)The incredible sinking president (and his party) sink some more
Although a clear majority of Americans believe illegal immigration is a very serious problem for the country, many think it is somebody else’s problem as fewer than one in four say it is a very serious problem for their community, according to the latest FOX News Poll. Seven in 10 people say they favor allowing illegals that have jobs to apply for temporary-worker status, but eight in 10 think it is unfair to grant rights to illegal immigrants while so many others wait to come to the United States legally.
In addition, the new poll finds that the president’s job approval rating has slipped a couple of points and currently matches an earlier low recorded back in November. Today, 36 percent of Americans say they approve of the job George W. Bush is doing as president and 53 percent disapprove.
Approval among Republicans has dropped from consistently being above 80 percent to 74 percent approval today. And approval among Democrats is in the single digits, as fewer than one in 10 approve (8 percent).
Fox/Opinion Dynamics have for a long time given Bush better numbers than the other polls, so the situation is possibly even worse than it appears. It seems that the “temporary worker” idea is a winner across the board, which puts Bush and the Democrats essentially on the same side while the House Republican’s hard line is once again out of step with the mainstream.
How about posting the news that Steele is in danger of making significant inroads in Maryland in the democratic african-american community?

I wonder how many people live east of the Rockies, west of the Appalchians, and north of the southern border states?
Maybe one in four?
Down is the new up.
I don’t want to just knock Steele down, I want us to bludgeon him politically for thinking that just because he looks like us he gets our vote.
apparently a lot of “you” are willing to give their vote too.
So get that slander machine running, heave some mud and see what sticks!
Don’t start celebrating yet, DrDoper. Read the entire article.
