And just for fun:

Monday Nightly News

NBC: 5.8 /11 share


ABC: 5.7/11 share

CBS : 5.4/10 share

I triedd to watch Katie again last nite but it was just awful - she looked terrible and her delivery is so stilted that I can't stand to watch.

1. Clinton's numbers higher than GOP Pres and Congress combined!
As Media Matters noted, the January 6-7, 1998, Gallup poll, the last taken before the January 17, 1998, onset of the Lewinsky matter, showed 59 percent job approval for Clinton. From the time that the Lewinsky story broke through the Senate's February 1999 acquittal of Clinton on perjury and obstruction of justice charges, Clinton's Gallup job approval rating (subscription required) never dipped below 58 percent (a relative low he reached in a January 23-24, 1998, poll). Clinton's Gallup job approval ratings actually hit the high for his presidency during the Lewinsky matter, reaching 73 percent at the time of his December 19, 1998, impeachment by the House of Representatives (in a poll taken December 19-20, 1998) and reaching another relative peak of 70 percent in a February 9, 1999, poll, taken during Clinton's trial in the Senate.

From Media Matters

BWAHAHAHA!!! Bush and the GOP Congress combined have a 68% approval rating! I bet you won't see this on ABC!

3. OK, so what you're saying is Bush is "up" [/sarcasm] to 39% now?
Last I heard his approval rating was in the low forties...
If this is the 'bounce' he was expecting, well :bounce: away!

4. yes BUT!!!!
don't forget...

a LARGE number of the respondents don't like BUSH or the Repug's because

THEY'RE NOT CONSERVATIVE ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So don't get too excited. Of those people who don't support BUSH, nearly half will never vote for a DEM.

5. That surely is true of people in Missouri
If Bush were the devil they still wouldn't vote Democrat. Just the principal of the thing.
