Ladies and gentlemen, the President of Idaho |
|
from Salon.com
For the president, 38 flavors of bad George W. Bush is a very popular president -- in Idaho.
Survey USA has pulled together a 50-state survey on George W. Bush's approval ratings. The president gets a net positive approval rating -- that is, a poll result in which more respondents approve of his job performance than disapprove -- in just 10 states: Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, Nebraska, Texas, Alabama, North Dakota, Montana, Oklahoma and Mississippi. In two other states -- Louisiana and North Carolina -- respondents are divided evenly on their president.
The other 38 states? Not so good for Bush. They don't approve of him just a little bit in Indiana and Alaska, and they don't like him much at all in Rhode Island, where respondents say they disapprove of the president's job performance by a margin of 68 to 39 percent. Rounding out the bottom five: Massachusetts, Vermont, Delaware and California.
If poll results equaled Electoral College votes, Bush would have about 75 of them right now. It takes 270 to win.

I'd like to see the complete numbers, just out of curiosity.

4. That explains his side trip... |

He's leaving the pig farm in a couple of days for a visit to Idaho. Only place in the country where he's still popular.
