in the polls. Gallup now shows him with a 49% general approval
rating, the
lowest since he took office. Even right wing bobble heads are saying
he's
"in big trouble".

A similar poll showed Kerry beating Dubya by 7%.


Here's a story on the latter statistic, suggesting that if the
election were held today, Kerry would beat Bush. Boy is that good
news:

If memory serves, polls at one time showed Dukakis beating Bush the
Elder by a similar margin. I'm sure we'll all recall how the eventual
election came out there -- Dukakis lost by a rather sizable margin. Such
polls this far before the election, and even before the conventions are
held, are meaningless.

That story says only two incumbents trailed at this time: Harry
Truman and Gerald Ford.

By the time the election comes around and Kerry's record is more widely
known, the undecided voters, who decide most elections will IMO elect Bush
again.
