NEW YORK (Reuters) - President Bush (news - web sites)'s approval rating is at an all-time low and fewer than half of Americans now believe invading Iraq (news - web sites) was the right thing to do, according to a CBS/New York Times poll released on Wednesday.


The poll found that if the presidential election due in November was held today, 46 percent of Americans would vote for Democrat John Kerry (news - web sites) and 44 percent would vote for Bush -- if independent Ralph Nader (news - web sites) stayed out of the race.


The poll, with a sampling error of 3 percentage points, was conducted among 1,042 adults nationwide from Friday to Tuesday during a spate of fierce fighting in Iraq. More than 115 U.S. soldiers have been killed in combat this month.


"Just 32 percent, the lowest number ever, say Iraq was a threat that required immediate military action a year ago," the poll reported.

1. I never thought I'd see it drop below fifty
Let me amend that: I never thought I'd see anyone in the mainstream media ADMIT that it had dropped below fifty!

2. Oh I pray those approval ratings keep dropping
I was amazed with some other pole numbers that showed chimpy's numbers actually rebounding. He has to be the worst president in US history.
