Not surprising at all.....given the media hyping of Clarke's lies, and the other demolib silliness that gets repeated ad nauseum......Bush will start to get his message out soon and those numbers will improve...

A good number of people recognize the Democrat hate machine for what it is.

March 26, 2004--Despite accusations from former White House aide Richard Clarke about the Bush Administration's handling of the threat from terrorists, American voters continue to trust President George W. Bush more than Senator John F. Kerry when it comes to the issues of national defense and the War on Terror.

A Rasmussen Reports survey found that 51% now prefer Bush on these national security issues. Thirty-nine percent (39%) prefer Kerry. Those numbers do reflect some slippage for the President. Last week, voters preferred Bush by a 54% to 37% margin...

While voters have a clear preference for Bush on national defense matters, they are evenly divided when it comes to the managing the economy--45% say that they trust Bush while another 45% have more trust in Kerry.

It is somewhat remarkable that the candidates are perceived as equal on the issue of the economy. Currently, 55% of Americans say that the economy is getting worse. That's the highest number since last October. If Kerry cannot gain an advantage on this issue in the current environment, he may be in real trouble if the economy improves.

Kerry is in real trouble because the economy is very likely to look up come the fall. The trend in business now is leaning toward an upswing in hiring. Americans are about to eat more McDonald's now and that is all they care about.
