THE OVER-ALL POLL NUMBERS DON'T SHOW HOW HUGE THE DISSATISFACTION WITH BUSH ACTUALLY IS

All the new polls show Bush's job approval rating continuing to fall. But it isn't until you look at the state by state numbers in each state, provided by Survey USA (http://politicalwire.com/archives/2005/08/17/bush_approval_continues_to_fall.html/) that you get a sense of how people have turned against the Bush Regime and his disastrous policies. Although his overall job approval rating is at 41% nationally, a quick look at the state-by-state results show that it is only a handful of backward states with low education standards in which primitive religious beliefs predominate where Bush is over 50%: Alabama, Texas, Idaho, Nebraska, Utah, North Dakota and Wyoming. In the heavily populated states which make the biggest contributions in terms of taxes, Bush's approval doesn't even approach a relatively lofty 41%. Ohio has just crossed the 60% mark in people who disapprove of his job performance. In New York 62% disapprove, same as in California, Maryland and Connecticut. In Massachusetts and Delaware the disapproval is 64% and in Rhode Island its 68%! Even states that strongly supported his 2004 re-election bid like Georgia, Arkansas, Mississippi, South Dakota, Kansas, Tennessee, Missouri, Indiana, South Carolina, Kentucky have turned against him! Compared to last month's poll, Bush's approval numbers dropped 5 or more points in 10 states. The single largest drop was in Minnesota, where it fell 10 points. Bush also fell 9 points in New Mexico. GOP politicians facing re-election in 2006 are starting to panic.
