>>>>>>>>>>>>>Jan. 29, 2006 — - A weakened George W. Bush faces the nation in his 5th State of the Union address beset by war fatigue, persistent discontent on the economy and other domestic issues, ethics concerns and rising interest in Democratic alternatives in this midterm election year. Bush's bottom-line job rating -- 42 percent of Americans approve of his work, 56 percent disapprove <<<<<<<<
No matter where we go, the number for Bush is high 40s, that much I'll grant, but someone earlier on this thread mentioned it and I agree completely, whether its Rasmussen or others, if they are polling based on the phone book, these polls will have to become incredibly more sophisticated, since many folks don't use land lines at all any longer. None of my kids do and we are inches from dropping ours to go to cells only.
Interesting times.......but I do agree Rasmussen poll is trending up.
Actually it was supposed to be @ 46% but that was from last week. This new ABC poll came out today.
