Bush support slipping among independents

WASHINGTON (AP) --

President Bush's support among political independents, a critical
voting group in the coming year, has been slipping in recent weeks, a
poll released Saturday found.

The CBS-New York Times poll found that fewer than half, 45 percent, of
independents approve of the job Bush is doing as president.

In December, Bush's approval among independents had soared to 64
percent in the same poll.

While 62 percent of independents support Bush's handling of terrorism,
his backing on other issues is lagging in that group.

Only 44 percent of independents support his handling of Iraq in the
CBS-NYT poll and 37 percent support his handling of the economy.

In the poll, 43 percent of all those polled said the war in Iraq was
worth the costs and 51 percent said it was not.

Republicans strongly support Bush on all fronts, as they have for
months, and Democrats are increasingly opposed to the president as the
2004 campaign heats up.

So independents will be a crucial voting bloc.

PLONK!

Oh they vote.....
That's why liberals "neo-soc's" are the minority, unable to read a
ballot let alone casting a "legal" one.
Yep, it's gonna be sad times for the liberal losers this Nov.
