FROM: Political AnimalsAnd I'm glad to be wrong about Bush's popularity, but as found on
Hoffmania! : "
Three months too late, but America's catching on."
Adults were evenly divided on Bush’s job performance in January, but now 54 percent disapprove and 45 percent approve.
The number who think the country is headed down the wrong track increased from 51 percent to 58 percent in the past month.
Older Americans, especially those 50 and above, were most responsible for the declining confidence and approval numbers. Middle-aged people between 30 and 50 were about evenly split on Bush’s job performance.
42 percent approved of the president’s handling of Iraq, while 57 percent disapproved. That compares to 44 percent approval and 54 percent disapproval in January.
