Star-Telegram | 09/08/2005 | Ratings of Bush, others on downswing in state

Star-Telegram | 09/08/2005 | Ratings of Bush, others on downswing in state: "Texans have grown increasingly disenchanted with their government leaders, with politicians from the president on down suffering some of their lowest approval ratings ever, according to a new poll.

Released Wednesday by the Scripps Howard News Service, the poll of 1,000 adult Texans shows that 52 percent believe that President Bush is doing an excellent or good job, while 43 percent believe that he's doing a fair or poor one.

By contrast, Bush had the support of 87 percent of Texans shortly after the 9-11 terrorist attacks, with just 1 percent saying he was doing a fair or poor job.

His ratings have consistently declined and are now within the statistical margin of error for his lowest ever, according to Scripps Howard."
