Poll Crunch for Mid July

As of the 14th of July, a week after the bombings in London and the G-8 meetings and amid Rovegate, here is how the Big P is fairing:

Approval: 46%
Disapproval: 49%
Duh I'dunno: %5

Statistically there is no real change. However an ominous sign for Mr. Bush is that FOX News polling, usually bullish on Bush, is now at even money. Back in March FOX News had Bush with a 52-39 rating. Now it is 47-47. Gallup and Pew Reaserch gives Dubya good numbers and an improving rating. But when added all up he is still laying a big goose egg that ain't golden. There are more signs that Congress is going its own way on policy matters too. They are looking ahead to elections in 2006 and will be more and more reluctant to join in Administration hijinx that are not proving to be popular.
