Check out the new 50 state approval poll. Very good news. It took awhile, but Texas finally came around.

1. Hmmm...

Do you think this means we could pick up some house seats there in '06?

And what about the state legislature? Could we possibly force a redistricting?

19. I think DeLay's district could go blue

:rofl:

[Hobarticus]

2. Interesting...red states' numbers aren't that far off from blue states'

Not what I expected. Biggest case of buyer's remorse in history.

10. Only they didn't buy. They were bought by SCOTUS 2000 and Diebold

2004. The majority of Americans, 'blue' and 'red' states, have NEVER been pro-B*. It's all in the packaging, lies, and cheating.

12. Tell me about it....my state went red for the first time in a long time nt

[WiseButAngrySara]

14. Apparently, the 'red' is/was an illusion! LOL! n/t

3. This is VERY good. Wonder what Spray DeLay 's is?........n/t

edited to clarify "Spray", as in Bug spray, rat spray, roach spray, homo sapiens spray, etc.....

4. I'm starting to be more concerned about Bre'r Jeb's approval rating

W's a done deal. In all probability he'll be in the whitehouse for the next 3 years screwing things up, and then leave in disgrace in 2009 as the most hated president in history. However, we still have the rest of his accursed family to consider. Jeb is the leading 2016 threat, IMHO.

6. The Bush name is tarnished.

Even if Jeb were a decent guy, he wouldn't stand a chance.

People *already* have Bush fatigue.

[0rganism]

18. That's what I'm hoping for, but it'd still be nice to see the numbers

I want to see numbers for the whole family, all the way down to Jenna and the grumpy woman who got busted on drug charges -- Jeb's daughter, IIRC. Not ony that, I want those numbers in the toilet.

5. Thanks, bluestateguy!

That is really fascinating! Only 6 states claim 50% approval or higher.

Utah Idaho Wyoming Alaska Nebraska Oklahoma

8. It figures.

A certain DUer has Religious-Hardright relatives of the nuttiest kind in Oklahoma (not that I'd ever admit to it - Oops!).

[displacedtexan]

17. Me, too. (TX and OK) n/t

[Maat]

20. HeeHee (no need to reply)(I'll just finish my giggle)!

Take care!

[CottonBear]

9. Most of those states have small populations.

Oklahoma probably has more than any of the others listed.

[WiseButAngrySara]

13. Wyoming, Alaska, Oklahoma...oil interests? The rest 'religious?' n/t

16. really?? i'd have though south carolina would still be

sucking up to dubya the demigod.

[Botany]

7. Wow!

So how did he win then?????

Tex ASS is sick of him too.

[SheWhoMustBeObeyed]

11. The most telling statistics, IMO:

Missouri, New Mexico, Arkansas, Iowa, Nevada and Ohio.
They all went to Bush in '04, and they all show approval ratings below 40%.

The least surprising statistics:
The reddest state (Utah) gives Bush the highest approval rating, the bluest state (Massachusetts) gives the lowest.

Good graph. Thanks for posting.

15. Two things pop out at me...

1. There is NO WAY that Ohio legitimately went to Bush in '04.

2. Remind me not to go to Utah.
