Better Than Congress

Today's Rasmussen poll places President Bush's popularity higher than the approval ratings for Congress.

Twenty percent (20%) of Americans give Congress a good or excellent rating these days. The latest Rasmussen Reports survey found that 41% say the nation’s legislators are doing a fair job while 38% say poor.

In addition, most Americans have Congress accurately pegged.

Thirteen percent (13%) believe that most members of Congress are sincerely interested in helping people while 70% say the Representatives are mostly interested in their own careers.

At the same time, the President's approval rating (good or excellent) stands at 37%.
