...and it's ranging around 50% with an MOE of about 3%. I got mixed up on the numbers (saw an LA Times story about 39% and misread it as approval rating, but it was a new low in approval of the war.) I'll see if I can change it. (Nope, can't change it. But you did save me from a big mistake in the sample letters I just posted as another forum, for people to use today on the media--THANKS!)
It still means that the protesters in DC represent a majority of Americans--a big majority--in disapproval of Bush's major project, the Iraq war.
Though his approval rating has crept up a few points, it's still very low for newly "elected" president about to be inaugurated, and I tend to think that some who answered (the ones who bumped it up) are merely resigned to Bush, rather than approving. People often mistake resignation for approval, in themselves and in others.
