they left off this part off the poll...

The Quinnipiac University poll was carried out from From May 23-30 and surveyed 1,534 registered voters nationwide. The poll has a margin of error of +/- 2.5 percentage points.

too bad they only asked 1500 people, the democrats are just so desperate for a win they will take anything like this as a victory
just this morning matt lauer is interviewing the american idol winner and he says that more people voted for taylor than for bush, but unfortunately for you democrats you only get to vote once i'm sure the liberals wish that you could vote for president 10 times each over the telephone, but you liberal losers really need to move on Bush won kerry lost get over it and take those stupid kerry-edwards bumper stickers off your subaru wagon

Jimmy Carter was at least 10x worse. People either have short memories or they weren't old enough to remember.

Just like Truman, Bush's presidency will be seen in a much better historical light.

And Reagan deserves top billing along with about 3 or 4 others.

Sometimes the best action is not the most popular. It takes courage and leadership to pursue the right course.

Klintoon governed by watching the polls and going which ever way the wind blew - that's why the public, which is generally pretty stupid, awarded him second place. Slick had been too busy avoiding problems, lining his pockets from campaign contributions from the Red Chinese and indoctrinating interns to face the hard questions. That's why President Bush inherited a world that led to 9/11.

Quite amusing (and silly) since Reagan was just about as hated during his days in the White House. In fact, many people are still convinced his Alzheimers started during his second term. Yet now he is loved? Well I'm glad to see it. Perhaps one day people will appreciate Bush for facing up to and not running away from difficult challenges.

Let's see. Reagan is remembered for phrases like "Shining city on the hill," "Mr. Gorbachev tear down this wall," or "The Evil Empire." So far W will be remembered for "Doing the work Americans won't do," "Addicted to oil," or "Islam is the religion of peace."

Since 1945?

Does this mean he's better than FDR in his first two terms, or aren't they counting dictators.

Carter really wasn't a president. He was just a placeholder, keeping the seat warm for Regan.

while "lusting" and letting Americans languish for 444 days as hostages, while discussing nuclear proliferation with his daughter while dodging killer rabbits and cleaning up after Billy pee'd all over the WH grounds and interest rates where at 19%....just another day

At last! A poll not designed to create headlines, but to inform and educate! (sarc)

W isn't running again so this is beating a dead horse. Every modern President has this happen if he survives into a 2nd term. If you took this (with the MSM antagonism) in 1986, Reagan was at a low with the Iran-Contra. Carter was Afganistan / Soviet Union and approaching Iran Hostage. W has an active war with an actively antagonistic (NY Times) MSM.

A consequence of Reagan's greatness is people have forgotten Carter, since much of the mess he made was fixed by Ronaldus Maximus.

No further details?
Was this a CBS sponsored poll?
Anyway, my two cents says LBJ was the worst. We will pay forever for his "Great Society". And he probably would have had Welcome Wagons at the southern border.

He is definitely not the worst. However, after the 24/7 nonstop media campaign to smear him, the libs may have successfully burdened him with that perception.

One thing for sure, he is the worst communicator. I think that is the main problem here. His PR machine is incredibly weak.

We could elect a real rock as President, and Jimmy Carter would still be the worst.
