Bush Approval Hits New Low

In polling done prior to the failed bailout vote yesterday in the House, Americans responded with their lowest approval rating ever for George W. Bush -- 27 percent. That's a decline from 31 percent in a Sept 8-11 poll conducted by Gallup, marking his lowest ranking yet by Gallup during his presidency.

Only Harry Truman and Richard Nixon have had results this low or lower since Gallup began polling in the modern era.

What's remarkable is that 27 percent still approve. Who ARE those people?
