WTF: ABC/WaPo Poll has Chimp approval @ 47% (+8)???
http://www.pollingreport.com/BushJob1.htm

Even the latest Gallup has him holding @ 41%. This poll is a crock-o-crap.

12/15-18/05
47% approve
52% disapprove
1% unsure

1. Gas prices?
MOst people don't pay attention to anything political in a serious way.

They get grumpy with three dollar gas and blame the pretzeldent.

I dunno.

10. We indeed know that this is a bogus poll. CNN, MSNBC

12. I think its partly an outlier. I doubt he's at +8%, BUT...
I do believe he will be over 50% after the state of the union. However he will fall soon after and remain low untill after the midterms. The economy will slow down, the housing bubble will pop, double minimum payments will catch up to people, as will home heating prices.

13. Bush campaign-style PR blitz + No unified Dem position + Lower gas prices
Dubya is just finishing a month-long PR campaign to promote his Iraq policy and the Dems are now proudly admitting that they are too fragmented and ineffectual to agree on a unified message on Iraq. Throw in the lower gas prices and voila!, Dubya is cruising his way back to 50% approval ratings.

14. I believe it might be accurate
Don't forget that, not too long ago, 90% of Americans gave that dolt approval for reading My Pet Goat and talking through a megaphone.

I think too many people choose to ignore polls when they don't like the results and praise polls when they like the results.

18. The Iraq Elections are going to BOOST him.....
Edited on Mon Dec-19-05 08:50 PM by larissa
Just look at all the charts we've seen everytime a specific incident happens.

Then give America time to think about the weasle and how frantic he is trying to cover up the SNOOPGATE scandle.

:eyes: You guys know better than this...

Why does this same post have to be on so many different threads anyway? :shrug:

YOU GUYS WORRY TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH !!!!!!!
