Bush, or any Republican can NEVER win the pr war. AS long as the great bulk of the lamestream media insists on reporting their version of the news the impression will always be that conservatism is losing. However all we seem to do to arrive at this conclusion is look at lib media polling. How foolish is that? Yesterday I heard that Bush's approval rating was at 43% according to an AP/Ipsos poll. Pretty awful, right? But wait, that same day there was a Rasmussen (sp) poll released that had Bush at 51% approval. Rasmussen had the most accurate polling for the last election. Which one did YOU see and hear about on the news?

What really matters is what's happening across the nation and we all see how badly the libs are doing raising money (relative to the conservatives) and how split and discordant their Party has become despite the efforts to make it seem as they are "really" together on the important things. Remember that the main goal of the lib media and their elected buddies in Washington is to demoralize the opposition. I suggest that instead of listening to what the libs are saying you all look past that at what is happening across the country.

The polls don't relate real viewpoints for the most part.

President Bush disapproval numbers include both Bush haters AND conservatives who want him to do more. From what I've seen, all the polls tend to be 10 to 15% points off reality.

Give the media a break. If you just spent tens of thousands of dollars to conduct the AP/Ipsos poll, do you really think you are going to diss your own poll and publish someone elses poll? The poll was sponsored by AP which provides news material to papers and other news organizations around the world. Do you really expect them to provide Rassmussen numbers to their clients rather than their own that they paid for?
