Probably lost because they brought in Cheney. I doubt Bush & Co. has an above 50% approval in any US state. Not in Texas. Not anywhere.

Irrelevant.
Congress has an approval rating of less than HALF of that in every state, and that is not stopping them from making sweeping wins in contest after contest.

Far from it. - the democrat controlled congess has a very low rating and the dems are winning.

Think about that and what it really means.

The MS GOP ran ads of Rev. Wright. Didn’t do much good did it? Today on Rasmussen, Dems are trusted more than the GOP on the top ten issues from the economy to healthcare to the environment. The generic Republican is toxic. The public, apparently, wants to poke conservatives in the eyes. Perhaps that is why McCain is competitive with Obama and Hillary, while the other GOP candidates have no chance. McCain is not your typical Republican.

The approval rating of congress is lower than Bush's.
