Nov. 12 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. President George W. Bush's approval rating fell to a record low of 36 percent from 40 percent at the end of September, a survey released by Newsweek magazine showed today.

Bush's previous record low was 38 percent in the days after Hurricane Katrina struck on Aug. 29. Newsweek said Bush's approval rating equals the low of Bill Clinton's presidency in May 1993, when the Democratic president also hit 36 percent. Bush's father, President George H. W. Bush, recorded a 32 percent approval rating in a Gallup poll taken in July 1992 before Clinton defeated him.


I don't get this.......I saw a chart that showed the ratings of all the presidents since Nixon [which I can't find now], and at 36% Bush was only outdone by Nixon who went as low as 32% before he quit. Why would Clinton's ratings drop to 32% after just getting elected?

It doesn't make sense.
