According to Rasmussen 40% of the population is insane and dangerous
December 22, 2006

Forty percent (40%) of American adults approve of the way that George W. Bush is performing his role as President. Fifty-seven percent (57%) disapprove.

1. Nope.. 40% (I don't believe their numbers) just want their "team" to win
Never mind that the "winners" have won a box full of dog turds.. they still want to "win" :eyes:

2. Seems rather high (by about 10%?)
I thought most polls lately had the Dear Leader's approval rating at about 30-33%.

3. Rasmussen is biased in favor of Bush
They consistently give his approval rating as a few points above most other pollsters. Well, you know the old saying... "lies, damn lies, and statistics"

4. I don't believe it for a minute.
NO ONE I know, including those who previously supported Bush, supports him now. There may be a few, but no way it's 40%.

5. I can't imagine it's 40% either.... most current polls still show about
35% +/- a few points. Either way, 30-40% of the population is completely nuts. I honestly can't imagine anyone thinking Shrub is doing a decent job. However, a scary percent of the population actually does....that's frightening.

here's a link to PollingReport......it shows recent National Polls

CNN 12/15 36%
LA Times 12/8 42%
NBC 12/8 34%
ABC 12/7 36%
CBS 12/8 31%
USA 12/8 38%
