So now we have a duel. A duel between Hillary Clinton and George W Bush. Hillary Clinton is doing everything can to tear down Barack Obama's brand and give John McCain the election. Meanwhile, George W Bush has been everything doing everything he can to tear down the Republican Party brand and give Barack Obama the election.
For once I am rooting for W, who is doing a heck of a job:
President Bush has set a record he'd presumably prefer to avoid: the highest disapproval rating of any president in the 70-year history of the Gallup Poll.
In a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll taken Friday through Sunday, 28% of Americans approve of the job Bush is doing; 69% disapprove. The approval rating matches the low point of his presidency, and the disapproval sets a new high for any president since Franklin Roosevelt.
