Rasmussen Bush approval down to 35%
I've been watching this poll for a while. I think this is a low for him.

1. I believe you are right about this being a low for him on Rasmussen.
Their numbers are higher than other polls I've seen, but since their polls average 3 days worth of data, I find that they are very good at showing trends.

4. Actually Rasmussen has a good track record on
polls versus elections. So they may be biased to the voting public.

But I'm remarking that even the GOP bedrock poll has Bush support cratering which is great for America.

5. I think the most amazing thing about the poll
is that 16% strongly approve, while 46% strongly disapprove, that a 3:1 ratio
