WASHINGTON - President Bush's approval ratings hit a series of new lows in an AP-Ipsos poll that also shows Republicans surrendering their advantage on national security — grim election-year news for a party struggling to stay in power.
Democratic leaders predicted they will seize control of one or both chambers of Congress in November. Republicans said they feared the worst unless the political landscape quickly changes.
Just 36 percent of the public approves of Bush's job performance, his lowest-ever rating in AP-Ipsos polling. By contrast, the president's job approval rating was 47 percent among likely voters just before Election Day 2004 and a whopping 64 percent among registered voters in October 2002.
By comparison, Presidents Bill Clinton and Ronald Reagan had public approval in the mid 60s at this stage of their second terms in office, while Dwight Eisenhower was close to 60 percent, according to Gallup polls. Richard Nixon, who was increasingly tangled up in the Watergate scandal, was in the high 20s in early 1974.

WOW! What a surprise, not! The Republicans have sold their souls to the Devil and they're asses belong to the voters!
Having said that the Democrat's are no better than the Republican's. The Democrats are as cowardly, as big a liars, and as two faced as the Republicans are.
In November I urge all Americans to go to the polls and vote in you local issues and for your local people. For national offices I also urge you to 'write in' names. Pick some cartoon character like Daffy Duck or the Road Runner, because Lord knows that a cartoon character could do a better job that the liars, thieves, and backstabbing bastards/bitches we have in D.C. at the moment.
