I don't know very many people who say that the Democrats have better ideas about where the country should be going. I wonder what they think those ideas are???

Adults again, not registered or likely voters. Figures.

BTW, if someone can't be bothered to vote, who the heck cares what they think? And what difference does it make? Other than for purposes of cooking a poll I mean.

persistent discontent on the economy

This is an absurd statement. What about the extremely low unemployment rate, the housing boom? These are not factors associated with an ailing economy. ABC & the WP have virtually zero credibility.

We're at war, and the MSM acts as if it's all just a game. Drooling over bogus poll numbers, gleefully blaming President Bush for Hamas' victory. (What will he do now that his democracy doctrine just blew up in his face!!) They're out of their minds.

Ethics Concerns

Yeah, right. That is a Democrat talking point with no substance behind it. If you were to ask people what their concerns were, without prompting them, how many (who were not Democrat activists or cheerleaders) would actually say that 'Republican culture of corruption' or 'Bush administration ethics problems' even register on their radar screen.

Any poll such as this one that suggests various issues and then tabulates responses is inherently biased. Think of all of the issues that somehow did not make the list for the pollster to ask about, because they did not mesh with the pollster's preconceptions and biases, yet could legitimately stand shoulder to shoulder with those items that are listed (hints: abortion, appointment of conservative judges, drilling in ANWR, government vs. religion, flag burning/ten commandments/pledge of allegiance wording, Democrat corruption and obstructionism, traffic congestion, to name a few).

Meanwhile Rasmussen has Bush at 49% today and he has been the most accurate off the pollsters in the past 2 elections.

Crap!!!! Bill Clinton was elected president with only 43% of the vote in 1992. There would never have been a democrat president if the conservative base had not decide to cut off their nose to spite their face and vote for Ross. He didn't do much better in 1996. Conservatives set their own cause back 20 years. They would have had a republican congress. the presidency and two more conservative judges on the supreme court. It would seem that they want to repeat the process.

The only polls I worry about open in 9 months. Who gives a damn what the President's day-to-day rating is almost a year before the election? It's not like he is up for re-election tomorrow (or at all).

At the end of the day, people gotta go into a booth and flip a lever for the (D) or the (R). The Donks have proven themselves to be completely non-serious, which is a fatal flaw in such serious times.

It is one thing to gripe about the President. It is an altogether different thing to elect some Democrat moron.

I always vote, yet I'm never called. Of course I never pick up with unidentified numbers on caller ID.

Ok... so 1,043 random people polled, but they didn't tell us what the breakout of political part is.

Also its obvious this isn't registered or likely voters just 1,043 random people.

Typical... oversample dems by 10 percent then act surprised there is a 5% drop in something.

Then write up 10 times more front page 'news-editorial' based on the poll, pick a few questions that tells the story they want, and distance from any inconvienent facts like the actual numbers.

Psssst: ABC, your jig is up. No one is listening to your gloom & doom critiques on President Bush, thank God.

His poll numbers will skyrocket after the SOTU speech. You traitors can take it to the bank.

I've been saying it for the longest time... this administration is absolutely incompetent when it comes to getting their message out. There is no way that they should have such a poor grade on the economy.

Thank the Lord for the many who are totally unfazed by all this minutely documented BS. None of it has any bearing on anything,save to provide Bush/America Haters silly talking points to criticize the POTUS after the SOTUS.

They are the losers who need these elaborate "fact-based" lies to create the illusions that they desperately hang onto while their dominion whithers and dies.

Rasmussen: Bush Approval 49% 'National Adults' (52% 'Likely Voters')
01/29/2006 9:57:10 AM PST



Rasmussen Reports ^ | January 29, 2006 | Scott Rasmussen
Sunday January 29, 2006--Forty-nine percent (49%) of American adults approve of the way George W. Bush is performing his role as President. Fifty percent (50%) disapprove. It is not clear whether this uptick in Job Approval over the past three days is a lasting change or merely statistical noise. The President earns approval from 81% of Republicans, 23% of Democrats, and 40% of those not affiliated with either major political party. Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty (R) holds a very modest lead over Attorney General Mike Hatch (DFL) in his bid for re-election. The Minnesota Senate race is a toss-up. Premium...
