For Now, Poll Says Bush Would Lose

WASHINGTON -- In the strongest indication yet of President Bush's weakening political position, a new poll has found that more voters would support a Democratic alternative than would back Bush if the next presidential election were held now.

The nationwide survey, done by Quinnipiac College's polling institute, found that 48% of those polled said they would vote for a Democrat while 44% would support Bush. The poll, which had a margin of error of 2.8 percentage points, surveyed 1,232 registered voters from Feb. 26 to March 3.

Quinnipiac polling director Maurice Carroll noted that the survey had pitted an unnamed Democrat "without any baggage" against Bush, "who does have baggage." He said a late-January Quinnipiac poll matching Bush against seven actual Democratic candidates found the president ahead in each case.

Among those who thought that terrorism was the greatest problem facing the country, the president was favored by nearly 3 to 1.
(which is precisely why we keep having these bogus "terror alerts" which last for months at a time and do nothing but stagnate the economy imo)
