I'm not exactly sure how polling agencies come up with their "approval ratings," but this 24% rate of favorable repsonses is pretty close to what they report these days, isn't it? I think Bush's approval rating has been around 30% lately, and this is not far off considering the small number of people responding.

Time for another benchmark:

Right now there are 47 answers to the poll.

Worst: 19
Bad: 16
OK: 6
Good: 5
Best: 1

So, 74% of people responded with an unfavorable rating of Bad or Worst. And 13% responded with a favorable rating of Good or Best. And 13% responded with a nuetral rating of OK.

Uh, oh! Looks like Bush is slipping in the polls! This could be real trouble for him if the canncom members are abandoning him.
