Thanks for your encouragement.
I have wondered what his personal approval rating was and never have been able to find it.
You make good points.
A more specific analysis . . .
FACT:
PRESIDENT BUSH REMAINS PERSONALLY POPULAR.
A recent poll by the well respected Ed Goeas (The Tarrance Group) determined that “. . . with the 2008 Presidential Election quickly approaching, voters will be making assessments of President Bush and his time in office. There certainly is anxiousness among voters about their current situation, especially Iraq and the economy. However, A MAJORITY OF VOTERS (approximatelly 60%) LIKE PRESIDENT BUSH PERSONALLY AND PROVIDE A REMARKABLY POSITIVE JUDGEMENT ABOUT BOTH HIS RECENT INITIATIVES AND HIS OVERALL TIME IN OFFICE.”

FACT:
TEXANS APPROVE OF THE PRESIDENT’S JOB PERFORMANCE.
According to Rasmussen, the President’s job approval ratings in Texas are as follows:
23% excellent 20% good 16% fair 39% poor — a 60:40 ratio virtually identical to the President’s electoral margin in 2004 (in Texas)!
Only six governors have a higher ‘excellent’ rating than President Bush; in fact, the ‘popular’ Arnold Schwarzenegger has an ‘excellent’ rating of only 7% (7% excellent 25% good 32% fair 34% poor)!
FYI: The Supreme Court has an excellent/good rating of only 37%. http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/favorables/governors_approval_ratings
