From the CNN story: <snip source="CNN">
Bush's job approval rating is 58 percent, a five-point decline since last week and the first time it has dipped below 60 percent since the terrorist attacks. Still, the president gets high marks for leadership, vision and his ability to make hard decisions. His handling of national defense wins approval from more than six in 10 Americans. </snip> I really don't see this "ability to make hard decisions". It seems that he tries something like, oh,... calling a few countries an Axis of Evil and then later has to eat his rhetoric. I think he just makes off the cuff decisions most of the time. <snip source="CNN"> The president still enjoys strong support from Americans when it comes to their evaluation of his personal strengths. For example, 67 percent of those polled say Bush brought dignity back to the White House and 65 percent said he inspires confidence. </snip> Bush, brought dignity back to the white house....Whatever. Ok, so he keeps his pants zipped up. If you looked that goofy, you wouldn't have a problem keeping your pants zipped either (sorry, I realize that's a low blow, but I thought it was a little funny) Anyway, he's just brought the same good ol' boy politics to DC. I also don't see how he inspires confidence when he can't assemble a decent economic stimulus package, seems to flounder in foreign relations, and doesn't seem to want to follow through with projects (i.e. Bin Laden). Oh, BTW, before you blast me for being a bleeding heart liberal......I was planning voting for McCain until that plan was scraped.
