50-State Poll on Bush Approval
SurveyUSA just released its latest poll on Bush's approval in all 50 states. These can be compared to their poll from a month ago. Bush's overall support dropped in the last month from 41% to 38%. Where did Bush's lost support come from? Well, it turns out it came mostly from the South, the Midwest, the desert Southwest, and New England. This territory, aside from New England, is Bush's base. So why are they deserting him? Two words: Harriet Miers. Conservative commentators have up until now been extremely supportive of President Bush, but once Harriet Miers appeared on the scene, they turned on him, not able to believe that he would rather appoint a crony than the best person for the job. So now Bush-ies and conservatives attack each other. Popcorn, anyone?

If she were not herself the fourth sign of the apocalypse, I would be cheering. What are her chances of confirmation? I hear that they threw her questionaire back in her face today along with a verbal schooling regarding her lackadaisical responses. But the very fact that she was nominated at all smacks to me of cronyism. But is that in any way a surprise, given W's track record? I hate everything. Get these fuckmonkeys out of the gears before the whole machine comes to a grinding halt. (typical Jarosian nihilism - Abram, please make it all better)
