1. Who Wants To Bet That Gallup's Next Poll Has Bush Going Up A Point Or Two?

It's their MO to buck the trend when things are going bad for Chimpy.

4. I'm really quite surprised

This poll is usually high in favor and the one they quote a lot for his approval raitings. Heh heh. This is really very telling. And to think it's only been a few months since November!! For someone who is supposed to be really popular he surely isn't now over seven months later!

5. Was probably the last poll that supporters could site over 50%

One thing that stands out is how big the STRONGLY Disapprove has grown vs. Strongly Approve.

8. In reality, I'll bet that it's in the 30's

when it officially goes into the 30's, put your tin foil hat on and hang on.
