Bush approval at new low, 23%

And that includes his dog. He also has a 73% disapproval. This explains why a GOP Senate candidate is trying to tie himself to Obama, in the hopes of winning his re-election. It's also why John McCain is terribly confused about what to do this fall. Does he abandon Bush and alienate the conservative Republicans who already don't trust him? Or does he embrace Bush and alienate 73% of the country? Or does he split the baby in half and come across as a flip-flopper, or worse, confused?
