Oh no. And what of the fauna that make their habitat there?

Considering that it comes from DailyKos, my guess would be Bush.

Don't get excited. The status of not being happy with Bush does not equal voting for Democrats.

For about a third of the country, you're right. But it still can equal staying home on election day.

Anyway, apparently if you compare the numbers Bush is now less popular than torture. D!ck Cheney receives less approval than cheating on your wife.

If you ask me, they are pretty much the same thing.

Polls are pointless. I swear I've heard the phrase "Bush's sinking popularity" on CNN and BBC more times than I can count in the last few weeks. Who cares?

I'm sure that when Bush's popularity was in the 80s you were equally unconcerned with the polls.

So what? You have everyone vote against BUSH or any other candidate and they could still easily win Confused

That's right folks, give em' all the red or blue, pink or purple maps & poll results you want. If i wanna be the supreme dictator just gimme access to the phony electronic voting systems & my posse will take care of the rest Twisted Evil

As a matter of fact, that's right. I studied sociology and I am more than aware the fleetingness of polls and how meaningless they iften are.

Remember the exit polls that showed Kerry with a lead?

BTW, other polls show Congress's approval rating hovering around 30%, lower than the President's. But again, who cares?

Oh, where shall the buffalo roam?

Note that even in Idaho and Mormon Utah approval ratings don't top 60%.
