I''m happy to announce that the majority in Texas(56%) FINALLY disapprove....finally.

[NewJeffCT]

1. He was just at 24% in CT?

Now he's at 31? That doesn't make sense.

[liberal N proud]

2. Wyoming - the only state with less than 50% Disapproval

WOW!

[realisticphish]

5. no

Utah, too

[nickinSTL]

9. And Idaho

n/t

[marions ghost]

11. as I read it

Wyoming, Utah, Idaho = the high approval winners

Vermont & New Jersey = the low approval winners

You KNOW something is going on when Missouri has the same percentage approval (29%) as Maryland (29%)--can this be a mistake?

Yes...WOW.

[SmokingJacket]

30. No, NY and RI are at 23% approval!

Wheee!!!! We win!!!!

[marions ghost]

33. yep u r right

:applause: for those 4 Northeast states who are the lowest...

Do you think you can bring it down to the teens? Might be historic.

[realisticphish]

3. 32% approval in OH

:woohoo:

[paparush]

4. Dang..66% of NC Repubs *approve* of Bush...what does he have to do..

to convince these idiots that he is evil and will feed their grandchildren into the grinder???

Oh, my poor state.

[marions ghost]

7. well aren't you taking in the big picture?

North Carolina overall:

35% approve
63% disapprove

I'd say that's encouraging....

[paparush]

39. Yes yes yes!! I know that, but I want the Repub base to flee from Bush

as if he is plague ridden vermin (hmmmm...)

[marions ghost]

41. NC dynamics

Repub base in NC:

--big Military installations (can lose a lot of them to Dem, tend to be intelligent, down on this particular war)
--big Fundy elements (tend to be -let's say- followers, traditionalists, rather than stupid--Jesus told them to vote Repub and that's it for the rest of eternity)
--big Mexican/South American population (doesn't vote too much but presence could cause vote shifts as the immigration thing heats up)
--big Tobacco & farmers (might have some conversions there if economy worsens)
--Racists =unquantifiable (not cool anymore but a factor...can't underestimate in the state that spawned Jesse Helms (no hope for them, they like whiteness)
--big Tourism (bring on a few more category 4-5's hurricanes & send in FEMA)
--small Bidness -- very Repug, but opportunities there as they get squeezed
--big Bidness, Raleigh, Charlotte (dependent on economic factors. Don't hold your breath)
--big Medicine (not happy with state of heathcare, ready for changes)
--small workers --Joe Sixpack--the one group who OUGHT to have fled long ago


Have I left out any? So many different kinds of Repugs. Will some flee? Good Q. What do you think?

[progressivebydesign]

6. Thanks for the list. Good thing to know if you ever need to move.

Now I have a list of states to avoid... How utterly unsurprising that was. All the usual suspects support him. Utah, of course, because of so many religious types... And, I don't mean this to sound harsh, but did you notice that the states with the lowest levels of education (per statistics) are the ones that support him the most? Think there's any correlation?

[nutsnberries]

8. 26% approve, 72% disapprove in Massachusetts. i'm surprised the

approval is THAT much!

[acmavm]

10. I NEVER thought these farmer fundies fakes here in NE

would flip. It's only 49/51 but hey, that's something I never thought I'd see.

[KarenS]

12. note to self: Do not move to

Wyoming, Utah, Idaho. Underlined & capitalized.

It's been hard enough to live in Colorado for the past 6 years.

[seafan]

13. Does anyone have that nice map that gradually turns blue across the US?

The latest I saw was the March 06 update and it was almost totally blue.

[Kenergy]

19. try : http://radicalruss.net/blog/images/bushmap-new.gif

[seafan]

38. Was looking for the animated version of this...can' t seem to locate.

But thanks!

[jojo54]

14. Any of the red states that are less than 50% looks pretty

damn great to me!!

[sinkingfeeling]

15. Deleted because I missed Idaho.

[stepnw1f]

16. Only 26% in MA

All from Western MA I believe. What a bunch of weird ass lemmings. "I'm a republican... I must follow...duh"

[Lochloosa]

17. 36% in FLORIDA

I'm speechless!

[El Fuego]

18. Awesome! Thanks for the link.

[rniel]

20. I hereby renounce my citizenship from the state of

Idaho. Can I do that and still live here.

[CabalPowered]

27. No kidding. Love the State but hate the politics.

[yellowcanine]

21. Rhode Island Dems need to get to work. New York and Vermont are

nipping at their heels.

[LouisianaLiberal]

22. Thanks. We are at 43%.

Of course, most of the African-American neighborhoods in NO are empty, and the rabid right-wingers of the north are still able to answer their phone, so it seems that explains it. I don't know anyone here who supports Bush, other than one neighbor.

[Ravenseye]

23. If your state is still above 30% approval...

Explain yourselves!

[Ganja Ninja]

24. Unfortunately a lot of his disapproval ratings are because he ...

hasn't started shipping Mexicans out in boxcars.

[Greybnk48]

25. 36% in Wisconsin

I hope this splatters onto our state races because our legislators (repug majority for now) want to reinstate the death penalty here--it's on the ballot for fall. We need to clean house. Get rid of (ko)Tex Sensenbrenner and block Mark Green, a hard-core *bot.

[Seedersandleechers]

26. Hot damn...Missouri at 68% dis-approval 29% approve

[Blue_In_AK]

28. Even Alaska is at 54% disapproval.

:woohoo:

[Initech]

29. 28% approval rating in California!

:woohoo:

[kineneb]

32. Hoo Ya!

28% of deluded robots. About the same percentage as folks with sup-par IQ...?

Wonder what the breakdown would be by income level? Or by county?

[Initech]

34. I wouldnt be surprised at all if it were Kern County, Fresno, or San Jose

They're pretty red from my experience. Fresno and San Jose are about as red as you can get in this state.

[thecrow]

31. Yay! Only 39% in VIRGINIA!!!

Our state went to ^ in '04!

[kentuck]

35. I notice no states in the South over 50%...?

While Idaho, Utah, and Wyoming are still over 50% in the West? Does that mean anything?

[Saphire]

36. texas 42% approveal 56% disapprove >>WOW

[LoKnLoD]

37. Wow...

Utah down to 51%, that is HUGH!!

Really for Utah to be under 55% is a fantastic sign. I know, I live in this religious right wing hell.

[SunDrop23]

40. 35% in NC...66% of those polled are repukes...?

Unless I am reading it wrong.
