| More than 4 in 10 Americans strongly disapproving of the job George W. Bush is doing as president, according to the latest CNN/Gallup poll, the lowest of any president except Nixon in the waning months of his presidency. Just 40 percent of Americans believe Bush can manage the country effectively; Bush registers a 38% approval rating with a 60% disapproval rating. When Americans were asked a follow-up of whether they strongly approve or disapprove of Bush, more than twice as many Americans say they strongly disapprove (44%) as say they strongly approve (20%) of Bush. The strong disapproval rating is the highest Gallup has measured for Bush by a percentage point, and is the highest for any president since Richard Nixon during the Watergate era. Nixon is the only other president to register strong disapproval ratings above 40% in Gallup Polls. |
