George W. Bush’s poll numbers continue drop in the newest NBC\/Wall Street Journal Poll. Americans are now most concerned about gas prices followed by Iran nuclear weapons, illegal immigration and Iraq. <\/p>\n

2 out of 3 Americans believe that the country is on the wrong track. 3 out of 4 people polled have lost confidence in the economy. 62% disapprove of the President’s handling of Iraq.<\/p>\n

Bush’s approval rating dropped to 36% in this poll. Katie Couric suggests that the White House might be relieved that the President’s approval only dropped one point.<\/p>\n

There was also some bad news for Democrats in the NBC\/Wall Street Journal Poll. When asked who should control Congress, people preferred Democrats over Republicans by 6%. This is down from a 13% margin in the last poll. The overall approval for Congress dropped significantly from 33% to 22% which is considered to be bad news for the Republicans who now control congress. The sinking approval of Congress may lead to low voter turnout for both parties.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
