Red Alert for Bush - Only 41% of Americans Want to Re-elect Him
Since 9-11, the Republican-controlled media has been obsessed with Bush's "approval" ratings. But the statistic that political professionals watch is the "re-elect" number - the percentage of voters who say they would vote to re-elect a politician if the election was held today. Bush's "re-elect" is down to only 41% - which would be considered the certain electoral doom for any other politician. So next time you hear a pollster or pundit say Bush's approval ratings are untouchable, ask them why they are ignoring Bush's dismal 41% "re-elect" number. And remember, Bush I went from 90% approval ratings in January 1991 (during the First Gulf War) - but LOST his re-election with a super-dismal 37%.
