| NEW YORK ? Most Americans oppose allowing a Dubai company to run some U.S. ports, even as a majority understands the U.S. would continue to control port security, according to a new FOX News poll. One in four sees the United Arab Emirates as a strong ally, but most either disagree or are unsure. In addition, the poll shows Republicans have lost ground on the issue of terrorism, and by a wide margin voters now think it would be better for the country if Democrats win control of Congress in this year?s midterm election. For only the second time of his presidency, the poll finds that President Bush?s overall job approval rating has fallen below 40 percent ? today 39 percent of Americans say they approve and a 54 percent majority disapproves. Late last year the president?s approval hit a record-low of 36 percent (8-9 November 2005). This is also one of only a handful of times that Bush's approval has dropped below 80 percent among Republicans. Today 77 percent of Republicans approve, down from 82 percent in early February. |
