If the comments I read on this site are any indication of what the public as a whole thinks, I'm surprised the president's ratings aren't in the negative integers yet.
Bush Approval Hits New Low at 28 PercentPresident George W. Bush's job performance is currently viewed positively by only 28 percent of U.S. adults, the lowest since he took office, according to the latest Harris Interactive poll.
Seven in ten adults view his job performance in a negative light, including almost half (48 percent) who say his job performance is poor. Since February, the president has dropped from one-third (32 percent) who viewed his job positively and 67 percent who gave him negative marks.
The results are from the latest Harris Poll of 1,001 U.S. adults surveyed by telephone between April 20 and 23, 2007 by Harris Interactive.
Vice President Dick Cheney is also at his lowest job approval - just one-quarter of adults view him in a positive light while over two-thirds (68 percent) view his job performance negatively. This is down from February, which was his previous low, when 29 percent saw his job performance positively and 67 percent saw it in a negative way.
Democratic leaders may have gotten past their first 100 days, but the people are not giving the leaders of the House and the Senate glowing reviews either.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has fallen from a 38 percent positive rating in February to 30 percent positive now. Well over half (56 percent) of adults currently view her job performance in a negative light, compared to just 45 percent who did so in February.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has also dropped. In February, 23 percent viewed him positively while 47 percent viewed his job performance negatively. Currently, over half (52 percent) see his job performance in a negative light while just 22 percent gives it positive ratings.
