Disapproving of Bush does not automatically translate into "thinks like Bowser."

Or "approves of Democrats" for that matter. The actual poll is here, and you are welcome to examine the trend on Congressional approval (question 3).

Current Congress approval rating in this poll is six points below Bush's, and the lowest it's been in this poll since November of 1995. In fact, the number has only been equal to or lower than this 13 times since 1974, and of those, 12 were prior to the Republican takeover in 1994.

Even if you split it by party, Democrats in Congress beat Bush by only five points. I notice they don't run the "split party" dates prior to 1994.

Wonder what question 5 was.

Respondents leaned 50 percent Democrat, 38 percent Republican, and 9 percent "independent."
