Americans' Ratings of Dick Cheney Reach New Lows

[sabra]

Source: Gallup Poll

PRINCETON, NJ -- Americans' ratings of Vice President Dick Cheney are now at their lowest point to date, according to the latest Gallup Poll, with only 30% approving of the way Cheney is handling his job as vice president and the same low percentage viewing the vice president favorably. Although Republicans continue to rate Cheney more positively on both measures than do independents or Democrats, Republicans' ratings are also at their lowest levels to date.

A comparison of Cheney's ratings with President George W. Bush's ratings over time shows little distinction in their job approval ratings, but in their overall opinions of the two, Americans have consistently rated Bush more favorably than Cheney.

Vice Presidential Job Approval Ratings

The latest poll, conducted July 12-15, 2007, finds 30% of Americans approving of the job Cheney is doing as vice president, while 60% disapprove. This is slightly lower than the 34% measured this past March, and is the lowest of his entire tenure as Bush's vice president.

7. It's Gallop, they poll more repubs than Dems and Independents

so their poll numbers re any repubs are to be taken with a "hugh" dose of skepticism.

Notice Gallop doesn't give the breakdown re how many repubs, Democrats and Independents were polled, that is not by accident.

8. BULL. SHIT.

He is @ 9% last I saw. NO FUCKING WAY that piece of shit has a 20% increase over the last month.

EVERYTHING is lies, it seems.

9. In addition, they claim that 4 months after the Supreme Court decided

most contentious election in modern history, Dick Cheney had 63% approval in April of 01?!? I don't believe a word of it.
