The latest American Research Group poll shows the lowest approval
rating ever for President Bush, a 2-point decline in the past month.

Most
Americans see President Bush as intransigent on Iraq and prefer that
the Democratic-controlled Congress make decisions about a possible
withdrawal of U.S. forces, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News
poll...
A narrow majority -- 55 percent -- support legislation that would set a
deadline of next spring for the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iraq,
but while that measure is backed by 72 percent of Democrats and six in
10 independents, only a quarter of Republicans are on board.

Aw, c'mon. We're all scientists here. When the poll has a margin of error of 4%, attributing a drop of 2% to anything but random variation is mere wishful thinking.
Ahcuah..
True for one month. But when you consider that either party in the us could put up an I-speak-your-weight machine for president and still expect about a third of the vote, approval ratings less than this take serious effort.
And if we take a linear extrapolation from April-July 07, then sometime around April next year, every single person in the US will disapprove of the job Bush is doing..
Technically speaking, the lower limit would be 0%.
