Most of the responses here, seem to presume Bush’s low poll numbers are a result of liberals not supporting him.
IMHO, that entirely misses the point.
Bush’s approval is low because he’s abandoned so many Republican positions which his once-supporters believe strongly about, that a significant portion of what (should) be his strong base, have given up on him entirely.
Bush really has messed up, pandering so completely to illegal immigrants.
The GOP has been seriously damaged as a result.
One of the new leaders needs to step up to the plate, and start to form a new, pro-American vision for the Republican party so that former Bush supporters can get excited about the GOP again.
That’s not going to happen, with another 12 months of “comprehensive immigration reform” in the headlines through the primary season.
Bush needs. Needs. To abandon his sell-out policies to Mexico, about face and start to act like Reagan.
Not likely. But it’s the only thing which would turn things around.

REAGAN gave the illegal criminal alien invaders...
AMNESTY!!!!!
NOW, I'm signing off!

REALLY . . . I guess that’s why Rasmussen puts the President’s JA rating among Republicans at approximately 80%.
[The reason NewsWEAK pollsters were able to drive the President’s JA rating into the 20s: Republicans constituted a mere 22% of their polling sample vs 35% for Democrats — a 13 point differential . . . Additionally, NewsWeak failed to screen their ‘unaffiliateds’ for Republican/Democrat leaners — without such a screen, one can assume that ‘unaffiliateds’ actually included an OVERSAMPLE of Democrats/Democrat-leaners.]
