WASHINGTON (AP) - People think the Democratic-led Congress is doing just as dreary a job as President Bush, following four months of bitter political standoffs that have seen little progress on Iraq and a host of domestic issues.

An AP-Ipsos poll also found that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is a more popular figure than the president and her colleagues on Capitol Hill, though she faces a gender gap in which significantly more women than men support her.

The survey found only 35 percent approve of how Congress is handling its job, down 5 percentage points in a month. That gives lawmakers the same bleak approval rating as Bush, who has been mired at about that level since last fall, including his dip to a record low for the AP-Ipsos poll of 32 percent last January.

The telephone survey of 1,000 adults was taken Monday through Wednesday and has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.

And, yet, its ratings show an improvment over the previous Republican controlled Congress according to a poll of polls:

Ouch......... That dose or reality had to hurt, didn't it you delusional Jamie-Michelle clone? Go ahead with your usual irrational blather about vast conspiracies to smear the Republicans and the President, but the fact is that there are just too many organizations – including Fox – showing the same thing. We're done here................

"down 5 percentage points in a month" 8)

This is all pending until I peruse the polling internals. Odds are they`ve oversampled registered democrats


Never defended out of control Republicans who adopted the spend spend spend tactics of the left.

The Dems have never broken the 50% barrier. In fact they`ve yet to come close. In comparison, the last 31 polls showed the Republican congress at 27.8% and the Dem Congress at 34.5%.

Cheer for the dems all you wish, a meger average 6.7% gain in popularity!? :lol: Laughable since those on the left perceive government as their god. Has your god failed you village idiot? :lol:

To imply I`ve defended and approved the drunken sailor spending of the previous congress has earned you the ultimate merit badge Village Idiot.
