Title: Republicans’ Approval Ratings Worst In 25 Years

They got rid of scandal-tainted Majority Leader Tom DeLay, airport shoe-tapper Larry Craig and prurient instant message typer Mark Foley, but they just can't seem to shake the gloom.

Congressional Republicans scored just 36 percent approval ratings from the American public in a CNN/Opinion Research poll released Friday.

Fifty-four percent of Americans viewed Republicans in Congress unfavorably, while 41 percent said they were rankled by Democrats. Democrats had a 53 percent approval rating to Republicans' 36.

But despite Democrats' edge over Republicans, their handling of Congress receives few plaudits, according to the poll. Almost 70 percent of those questioned said they disapproved of how Congress was handling its job, with just 29 percent expressing approval.

"The Republican party may still be battling the legacy left to them by George W. Bush," CNN Polling Director Keating Holland was quoted as saying. "They have also spent a lot of time in 2009 working against Democratic proposals. That hasn't left them a lot of time so far this year to present a positive, post-Bush message. Of course, there is still plenty of time for them to do so before the 2010 midterms."

Republicans have branded themselves "the party of no," for their votes against a Democrat-backed stimulus plan and near-unanimous opposition to President Barack Obama's healthcare overhaul goals.

An earlier poll published in June was the subject of a Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee memo replete with a graph of recent polls.

A Washington/Post ABC poll in June put Republicans' at a 36 percent approval, while three other polls gave the party a favorability rating of under 30 percent. Republicans scored 29 percent, 28 percent and 25 percent respectively in polls conducted by The New York Times, Pew Research and NBC.

Here's the most salient sentence in this article.

Truly, if Dems are cheerleading the work that Dems AREN'T doing as the majority then they aren't paying attention. All the important issues are watered down. Voted into office in 2006 to end the wars..........failed miserably. And this is the party claiming accomplishments? The true Dem accomplishment is proving they are just as beholden to campaign donors as Reps and that they "care" about the American people to the same extent as Reps, no more and no less.

Reps/Dems are proven morons participating in the two party fraud. I question the sanity of the 29% who approve at all.

GOP is down. Conservative/libertarian views however, are skyrocketing. The White House has to be scared shitless at this point of the storm they've created.
