Record dead Americans. You certainly seem to be happy about it and approve.

We'll see. It will probably still be a major issue in the upcoming election. No president has ever had fewer jobs at the end of their term than at the beginning; Bush may be the first. If so, he's in trouble. People will take a recession, but they can't take losing their jobs (or knowing people who have lost their jobs). Too close to home.

Will the Deaths of Saddam Hussein’s Sons Reverse Sharp Decline in Bush’s Iraq Ratings? Poll conducted immediately before the news found Bush’s Iraq ratings down to 49% positive, compared to 63% in May and 67% in April. Other changes in public opinion over the last two months include: By more than two-to-one (53% to 25%), a majority of Americans believe that most people in Iraq see the U.S. troops there more as occupiers than as liberators. In May, only a slender 40% to 36% felt this way. In May, a 45% plurality of Americans thought that the U.S. troops should stay in Iraq whether or not most people there wanted them to stay. That has now fallen to 31%. The proportion of people who think that we should be prepared to keep large numbers of troops in Iraq for two years or more has declined from 52% in May to 44% in the July survey. harrisinteractive.com
