13. I think people misunderstand the question.
When the pollsters ask "do you approve of Bush's job as Prez", I think people are missing the point. Obviously more people think he should get the heave-ho than stick around. My hypothesis is that when people hear that question they misinterpret it to "Is Bush trying to do his best?". I think more people will assume that he would try to do his best, and then think that Bush's best isn't good enough. See what I mean? I think the pollsters should switch to "Do you like what Bush has done and plans to do?", his numbers in that one would plummet.
