Americans on Bush: We still Hate Nixon More!

Wow - 34% approval rating - you have to really, really work hard to push below 40 in any approval poll. How much farther can he go? There is an obvious shelf where the numbers will bottom out due to the sycophants, but as the whole Port Problem illustrated, BushCo is heavily in the lame-duck territory.
Well, at least he's not as unpopular as Nixon:
Bush's low job approval is far below that of some of his two-term predecessors at this point in their second terms. In November 1985, President Reagan had a 65 percent approval rating, and Bill Clinton's job approval in November 1997 was 57 percent. Bush's rating is higher than Richard Nixon's was at the same point in his administration.
We think this is perfect time for the President to roll out that Health Care Savings Account plan, or perhaps to try out ending Social Security again. This is just too good.
The real question is when will the President's staff start deserting him for potential successors? That will be fun to watch.
