NEWSWEEK: Bush has the lowest presidential approval rating in a generation |
From NEWSWEEK, 5/5/07:

George W. Bush has the lowest presidential approval rating in a
generation, and the leading Dems beat every major ’08 Republican.
WEB EXCLUSIVE
By Marcus Mabry
Newsweek
It’s hard to say which is worse news for Republicans:
that George W. Bush now has the worst approval rating of an American
president in a generation, or that he seems to be dragging every ’08
Republican presidential candidate down with him.
But According to the new NEWSWEEK Poll, the public’s approval of Bush
has sunk to 28 percent, an all-time low for this president in our
poll, and a point lower than Gallup recorded for his father at Bush
Sr.’s nadir.
The last president to be this unpopular was Jimmy Carter who also
scored a 28 percent approval in 1979.
This remarkably low rating seems to be casting a dark shadow over the
GOP’s chances for victory in ’08.
The NEWSWEEK Poll finds each of the leading Democratic contenders
beating the Republican frontrunners in head-to-head matchups.
Perhaps that explains why Republican candidates, participating in
their first major debate this week, mentioned Bush’s name only once,
but Ronald Reagan’s 19 times.
