A CBS News poll has Bush's approval rating at 35%.
The only recent president lower at this point in their second term was Richard Nixon. Comparisons to Richard Nixon. Ouch.
"The president I think has bottomed out. I think last week was the bottom," said Ken Duberstein, who worked in the team that Ronald Reagan brought in to help recover from the Iran-Contra scandal. Newsflash, Duberstein: he hasn't bottomed out yet. You can count on that.
Congress is rated even lower. Only 34 percent approve of its work. Good thing 2006 is an election year. There's a change a comin'...
Vice President Cheney has never been as popular as the president, but his favorable rating is down nine points this year to just 19 percent. 19 percent. Really - what needs to be said about that number? Looks like his relatives, friends and his Halliburton buddies are the only supporters he has left. This is your Bush administration - one year after Bush proclaimed that he had earned "political capital". Looks like he's gone bankrupt and has taken the rest of the country with him.
