Bush Has the Highest Disapproval Ratings EVER!

Filed Tuesday, April 22, 2008 at 12:00 PM

A new Gallup Poll released today show President George W. Bush with the highest disapproval rating of all time!

Bush registers a staggering 69 percent disapproval rating, the highest in that survey’s history, according to CNN, even higher than President Nixon during the Watergate scandal.

From CNN:

But he can take comfort in the fact that the lowest positive rating in history still belongs to another commander-in-chief: Harry Truman, whose 23 percent mark in 1951 still bests Bush’s 28 percent approval. The runner-up in that category is Nixon, with 24 percent in 1974, shortly before his resignation.

That can’t be good news for the Republican nominee for President, Senator John McCain, who just a couple of months ago was having a tough time even convincing a majority of Republicans that he was their man.

In a CNN poll of polls from back in Feb, less than 50% of Republicans supported McCain.
