WashPost/ABC Poll: Bush Get Abysmal Raatings on ever issue
__WashPost/ABC Poll: Bush Gets Abysmal Ratings on Virtually Every Domestic Issue

Ruy Tiexeira: "n a wide range of domestic issues, his ratings are truly abysmal. They include: the economy at 42%/56% disapproval; creating jobs at 39%/55% disapproval; the federal budget at 38%/57% disapproval; prescription drugs for seniors at 35%/54% disapproval; and the cost, availability and coverage of health insurance at 32%/61% disapproval.... Other notably bad domestic ratings include Social Security at 43%/46% disapproval and taxes at 48%/48% disapproval. The latter figure is worth emphasizing since it is the first time disapproval has been as high as approval on Bush's signature domestic issue. Finally, for the first time since 9/11 more people think Bush doesn't understand 'the problems of people like you' than think he does (51% to 48%). And in a nice bit of symmetry, 62% now believe large business corporations have too much influence on the Bush administration and 62% believe 'people like you' have too little."
