39, 29, 28... Bushco continues to tank

39% think bush is doing a good job
29% think miers is qualified to serve on scotus
28% think the country is headed in the right direction
65% think delay's activities are illegal
57% think frist's activities are illegal
48% think congress should be under democratic control
69% think the worst is yet to come with energy costs


OUCH...!!
For the first time in the poll, Bush’s approval rating has sunk below 40 percent, while the percentage believing the country is heading in the right direction has dipped below 30 percent. In addition, a sizable plurality prefers a Democratic-controlled Congress, and just 29 percent think Supreme Court nominee Harriet Miers is qualified to serve on the nation’s highest court.

[...]

"It is not that Democrats have done so well," [Hart] said. "It is that people are disgusted." McInturff puts it this way: "People are very turned off and unhappy with the state of play in American politics." [Democratic pollster Peter D. Hart conducted this survey with Republican pollster Bill McInturff.]

disgusted...? unhappy...? turned off...? that's putting it mildly...

(thanks to atrios...)
