Poll Up Your Arse

The latest ARG poll shows two things(h/t Think Progress): One, Bush's approval rating is back in the basement, a record-tying nadir of 19%, down from 30% in August.

Two, the number of people polled who now say "the economy is improving" is statistically zero.
None. Nobody. Zilch. Nada. 82% or five in six say it's getting worse.

Even Republicans are pissed.

Among Republicans, 46% approve of the way Bush is handling the economy and 48% disapprove. Among Democrats, 97% disapprove of the way Bush is handling the economy and 2% approve. Among independents, 8% approve and 87% disapprove of the way Bush is handling the economy.

Democrats and Independents are overwhelmingly against Bush on the economy. A majority of Republicans are against him too. McSame = Bush, now more than ever.

[UPDATE] FiveThirtyEight has Obama running away with this one.

They have him winning VA, CO, OH, IA, NH and even NV.
