Wednesday Rasmussenblogging

The only poll worth paying attention to™:

The day after Election 2006, 45% of Americans approve of the way that George W. Bush is performing his role as President. Fifty-three percent (53%) disapprove. These figures include 23% who Strongly Approve, and 41% who Strongly Disapprove. The incoming Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, (D) is viewed favorably by 24%, the same rating enjoyed by the outgoing Speaker, Dennis Hastert.

Those who follow Rasmussen Reports on a regular basis were not surprised by the results last night. See how our final polls compared to actual election results.

Now that Election 2006 is behind us, it is time to begin tracking the march to the White House for Election 2008.

Shorter: well, that sucked ass, but the only poll that really matters is on November 4, 2008.  But yeah, Assmussen did really well on the Senate and Gov results.  And the Dow sure liked yesterday's outcome!

What are my Batshit Insane Future Ex-wives saying?

• Althouse:
  
  • I love the way the Democratic victories count extra because there was a "legendarily efficient White House political machine" artificially boosting the Republican side. When the Republicans win -- don't you know? -- it's not because people actually want them to win, but because they have devious ways of jacking up the numbers. That way, if Democrats win even a modest margin, it's a dramatic turnaround, a sea change.  [Ah, the Banal Blogging Bint channels Bobo!  She also doesn't like that a blogger who doesn't like her doesn't act like he likes her in person, apparently.]

• Magalangadingdong:
  • A minimum wage hike?!  I'm really trying to keep my spirits and yours up, but stuff like this ain't helping...And, of course, as I noted last night: Illegal alien amnesty is on the way. [Shorter: OMFG, the Dems had a plan to give working people an almost-living wage, and we might even let dirty brown people in on the action!]

• The Headmistress:
  • It can’t be any worse that poop-scooping the sopping leav-ed-rotted-figg-ed-pine-needl-ed covered yard after flooding rains… [And her cohort, Coach TC thinks it's just the Peter Principle at work.  Project much, kids?]

Cry me a river...
