Bush's 'Re-Elect' Drops to 40% The media keeps portraying Bush as "popular," but political pros know that any incumbent whose "re-elect" number is below 50% is in deep doo-doo. According to the latest Ipsos-Reid poll, Bush's "re-elect" is now at 40%, only 2% above his lowest-ever rating of 38% - despite "winning" two wars and strutting his "stuff" [puke!] across the deck of the U.S.S. Abraham Lincoln. Meanwhile 32% will "definitely vote for someone else," and 26% will "consider someone else." If Bush was an ordinary Senator with dismal poll numbers like these, the pundits would be calling him "endangered" - or, more accurately, "dead meat." Of course, the corporate media knows this, so they are trying to switch the election handicapping game from popularity to campaign cash, since Bush is busy pumping it by the oil barrel. But Karl Rove should study the lyrics of the old Beatles tune - "I don't care too much for money, for money can't buy me love." pollingreport.com Rascal@ firetheliar.com
