Strong Democratic sentiment pushes President George W. Bush to the top of the list when American voters pick the worst U.S. President in the last 61 years. Bush is named by 34 percent of voters, followed by Richard Nixon at 17 percent and Bill Clinton at 16 percent, according to a Quinnipiac University national poll released today. Leading the list for best President since 1945 is Ronald Reagan with 28 percent, and Clinton with 25 percent.
President Bush is ranked worst by 56 percent of Democrats, 35 percent of independent voters and 7 percent of Republicans, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University poll finds. Best ranking for Reagan comes from 56 percent of Republicans, 7 percent of Democrats and 25 percent of independent voters. Among American voters 18 - 29 years old, Clinton leads the "best" list with 40 percent.
Among young voters, 42 percent list Bush as worst. Clinton tops the "worst" list among white Protestants - 24 percent, and white evangelical Christians - 29 percent.
American voters disapprove 58 - 35 percent of the job Bush is doing, compared to 58 - 36 percent in a March 2 survey. Even voters in red states, where Bush's margin was more than 5 percent in 2004, disapprove 52 - 39 percent.
So tell me again why we cannot impeach this guy? And don't let the threat of Cheney stop you, I see a criminal investigation that can take down the entire cabinet.
I guess I do see the wisdom of waiting until the 2008 election to simply vote in a President who is not tainted by the decision to go to war. But in my opinion this leaves Hillary out. By the time we get to 2008 only those who either never voted for the war, or who have publicly denounced the decision to go to war, will be electable.
So John Edwards could still be our guy.
(Though in my deepest fantasies I would like to impeach these liars, hold a special election by next year and vote in their replacements two years early. We could make history!)
