Vote here: 41 vs.43 's Race to the Bottom- who will go lower?
Although it's not quite apples for apples because 41 was a one-termer (but who's counting):

LOWEST JOB APPROVAL NUMBERS (of presidency):

George H.W. Bush was at 35% in 1992 (pre-convention)
Junior the Executioner is at 40% (now)

Who will have the lowest job approval (Daddy or Junior) and what percentage? (if voting for the War Chimp)

Place your bets.

1. I'll take 30% for Junior
That's the number of idjits who'll support him if his head starts turning around on his shoulders.

3. Junior has much more time to achieve true presidential failure.
So... I'll say Junior at 30 right after the '06 election.

5. High twenties. Nixon, if my memory serves me, was at
26 or 27% approval when he resigned. There are idiots and establishmentarians who will support any "president," even an unelected one.

6. I've always believed Iraq was about 43's unresolved Oedipal issues
Edited on Sat Aug-27-05 10:38 AM by npincus
and the thrust of his life has been to show his father he is the better, more successful man. Comparisons with his father gall him most.

So, I think it would send him (further) over the edge for his presidency to be recorded in history books for perpetuity as a "greater failure" than his Daddy's.. and for him to be the "less popular" president.
