Bush supported by 86% of Republicans
An amazing statistic really when you think about it, is how well the strategy of maintaining the base really work, despite some really bad news, Bush's approval rating remains at 37% mainly because every last Republican loves him.
Poll Shows Strong Shift Of Support to Democrats - washingtonpost.com
President Bush's approval rating, which rose to 42 percent in September after an anti-terrorism offensive marking the fifth anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, registered 39 percent in the latest poll. The percentage of respondents who said they strongly disapprove of his performance is about double the number who strongly approve. This disparity in voter intensity could have implications for turnout on Nov. 7, since impassioned voters are most likely to go to the polls.The president's approval rating reached a low of 33 percent in May, but he has since regained support from Republicans who had expressed unhappiness with his performance. In the current poll, 82 percent of Republicans said they approve of how he is handling his job, compared with 68 percent in May</blockquote
