well the 82% number is a post-9/11/01 number, so I would be more interested in his 9/10/01 NY number.

If you get the right spin on the question in the poll then you can get higher poll numbers for even Saddam over Bush.

If you set up the game, rules, who you ask and results, you will probably get the outcome you want all the time.

Would it be accurate? No, only for the one manipulated small group you created.

But, these days papers create news with polls to make money, so don't be so surprised by this.

I don't think President Bush's nationwide numbers are at 22%.

only 39 percent of voters were willing to call for a complete removal of U.S. troops from Iraq.

the way the article is written it sounds like the author is biased against the war.

New York voters who gave George Bush soaring 82 percent approval ratings in 2001 have turned their backs on the president, with only 22 percent now saying they approve of the way he's doing his job.

78% Ignorant

LOL, Democrats would prefer Saddam over George W. Bush, Saddam is no threat to them, or the power they so dearly miss.

Saddam Hussein is a victim of the foreign policies of George W. Bush in their minds. The Democrats never miss an opportunity to say that Saddam had no WMD's, or that Saddam was trying to comply with the U.N. Demands, and that George W. Bush was only going after Saddam Hussein because he tried to kill his father

Maybe when they vote more than once and ask the dead.

New Yorkers are still in shock over the outcome of the 1960 World Series.

Well Zogby is still a Muslim connected pollster.

There is no love in the rest of the press for him, so I would say his chances of reelection in 2008 are nonexistent.

You may be right but!

There seems to be a lot of people asking where is the Republican leadership to lead the majority who are against the current immigration bill in congress.

John McCain, Arlen Specter and several others have gone over to the dark side.

I can see by McCain's physical appearance and his voice inflections that he truly despises those Conservative senators offering amendments to his prized citizenship giveaway.

Bill Frisk the coward can pack his bags and go back to his plush digs in Tennessee because he would never make a good presidential candidate.

Why in the world did this sorry excuse for a Senate leader ever put a RINO like Specter in charge of the immigration bill?

They would probably go so far as to fabricate the whole thing and not bother to take the data in.

Registered Democrats are about 64% of New York state's electorate.

Bush received 40% of New York state's vote in 2004. It's possible that the survey oversampled Democrats.

It's getting so blatant that people are gong to start catching on - This is an orchestrated campaign, remember the 'exit-polls" in 2004 - totally bogus? ...you can get whatever results you want for any poll - except a phone call in...

Remember the phone call ins? For example, just before the first Reagan election - all the polls said he would loose 2 to 1.

Then came the phone in poll, where people themselves could call in and vote - and they did, by the millions. It said: yes, 2 to 1 - FOR Reagan - and that's the way it went.

We need to get the RNC to conduct a phone IN poll- I'll guarantee it will blow these phony pools out of the water

I can't wait for the MSM to tell me his approval rating has gone negative.
