Bush Approval Rating Lowest Since March

A new USA Today/ CNN / Gallup poll shows that President Bush's approval rating has dropped to its lowest level since March.

The president's approval rating fell to 59%, its lowest level since March, in the poll of 1,003 adults over the weekend.

Bush's lowest marks came on his handling of the economy: 45% approved, 51% disapproved. That weakness extended to the Republican Party, which controls Congress. Democrats had a 17-point advantage, 53%-36%, when poll respondents were asked which party would do a better job handling the economy. In January, the GOP had a 43%-42% edge.

We can win. We just need a candidate and a platform.
