Not all doom and gloom for the republicans.

Overall, most registered voters (57%) say they would like to see their representative in Congress reelected in 2006

I suspect the democrats are going to end up disapointed in 2006. Not becuase they won't pick up seats, they just won't meet their grandiose expectations. I can already hear the whining.

Grey forgets that you don't have to prop up your popularity in an off-election year.

In 2003, the same things were being said about Bush as now. "Record low approval ratings" etc. But he saved his coordinated publicity campaign for 2004.

Of course, the liberal media is anti-Bush year in and year out, so when you aren't actively broadcasting your message, the drip drip of negativity tends to drag your polls down. But its only temporary.

You can hear it too? Then again, I always thought BGC was a whiny-little girl.

Wahhhh! Boo-hoo! Those right-wingers, shedding so many tears about the 'biased' media coverage they get. Maybe some day you gals on the right will find your binki and special blanket, and quit whining about the imagined biases and persecution you're just 'certain' the right is subjected too. I doubt it, though, because you'll always have the right-wing noise machine screaming that your crib really might have monsters under it after all.

They say instead:

In Panic Mode

Voters Bored With Bush - Vote To Re-elect Bush? Well... No Thanks

Like father, like son: Bush's approval rating now at pre-9/11 levels

Bush hits rough patch, popularity declines

Two polls released Thursday and Friday show President George Bush's popularity sinking.

</font>

And that just from a random search of August and September, I haven't looked for the absolute low point of Bush's popularity. I'm sure I could find worse. You can do it too, just search on the number at the end of the URL, they are all in chronological order.
