Unfortunately, Bush low in polls

Unfortunately, according to todays NYTimes (page A23):

"A survey taken by the Pew Research Center showed an abysmal 32 percent approval rating for Democrat leaders in Congress."

How come you didn't finish that sentence that says, "while the same number has a positive view of Republican congressional leaders (32%)?"

Interesting article overall. Thanks for the website Lil' Hannah

That's not in the article cited. Did you make it up?

LOL! Nope. It's from the Pew website that Lil' Hannah has in her post that has the actual results Pew did.

Their website is: http://people-press.org

And the exact quote is as follows:

"And while Bush and his party are struggling, the Democratic Party continues to be viewed in the same negative light as the Republicans. Only about third (32%) approve of the job Democratic leaders in Congress are doing, while the same number has a positive view of Republican congressional leaders (32%). Both measures have declined slightly over the past month (36% approval for each in mid-September). "
