Bush: Worst Quarter of Presidency
Fresh off of favorable reporting on Bush's bad poll numbers Gallup now reports that Bush is in the middle of the worst quarter of his Presidency and has the lowest approval ratings for a quarter of any President in over 20 14 years:
George W. Bush's most recent quarter, his 22nd office, was the worst of his presidency and the worst for any president since 1992, based on his 35.8% average approval rating during that quarter. It also ranks in the bottom 20 quarters out of more than 200 that Gallup has measured since Harry Truman's presidency.
And the worst is yet to come. The new AP-Ipsos poll is out:
An Associated Press-Ipsos poll conducted this week found the president's approval rating has dropped to 33 percent, matching his low in May. His handling of nearly every issue, from the Iraq war to foreign policy, contributed to the president's decline around the nation, even in the Republican-friendly South.
More sobering for the GOP are the number of voters who backed Bush in 2004 who are ready to vote Democratic in the fall's congressional elections (19 percent).
