Poll: Bush Hits New Lows, Congress Up
Bush's job approval rating keeps hitting new lows;but he don't care. Like King George, he doesn't care about public opinion. Congress' numbers have gone up. Now both branches of government are equally despised:
Public approval of Congress has edged up a bit now that Democrats are back in control, but it's still nothing to write home about. Approval for the way Congress is handling its job rose to 32 percent in the latest AP-Ipsos poll, up from a meager 27 percent a month earlier. That puts Congress on par with President Bush, whose 32 percent approval rating represents a new low for him in AP-Ipsos polling.
