Poll: Approval of Bush Performance Drops (Again)

by TChris

A weekend survey by CNN found that only 46 percent of those surveyed approved of President Bush's job performance -- the lowest rating Bush has received in the CNN poll. Only 44 percent believe the war in Iraq was worthwhile (another low), while just 41 percent believe that Bush has been doing a good job handling the war.

Only 37 percent of those surveyed said they were satisfied with the way things are going in the United States -- a sharp drop from early January, when 55 percent said they were satisfied. Those findings had a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.

Only 41 percent of voters said they thought Bush was doing a good job handling the economy.

Although widespread opinion that the President can't do anything right should be good news for John Kerry, the poll showed that likely voters are still about evenly split between the two candidates.
