A Fox News poll — let me stress that — a Fox News poll of registered voters has Bush’s approval rating plummeting from 44% (on Feb 7-8) to 39% (on Feb 27-Mar 1). Given the margins of error involved, that’s not too far from the CBS poll of 34%.
The poll also reflects that the plurality of people would prefer a Democratic-controlled Congress over a Republican-controlled Congress in the upcoming election: 45% to 31% (compared to 42%/34% three weeks ago). That’s a 14% gap.
And 44% say they are actually leaning toward voting for the Democrat in the district, compared to — get this — 28% for the Republican.
