Bush's approval is dropping again. And, the GOP Congress is in BIG trouble according to the latest Wall Street Journal/NBC poll:
The survey shows that by 41%-18%, Americans say recent news developments have made them less favorable toward continued Republican control of Congress; by 34%-23% they called themselves more favorably inclined toward Democratic control. It also shows a decline in Mr. Bush's job approval rating to 39% from 42% earlier this month.
Even more problematic for Republicans' campaign positions, the survey shows that a 46% plurality of Americans now believes the war in Iraq is hurting the nation's ability to win the war against terrorism. That's up from 32% earlier this month when Americans were nearly evenly divided over whether the war was helping, hurting or not making a difference in the war on terrorism.
