People think Washington is broken
New NBC / Wall Street Journal poll results indicate that “Washington is broken,” according to NBC News Washington Bureau Chief Tim Russert. Here’s the video for the story.
Biggest takeaway from this story is that 66% of the electorate is displeased with President Bush’s performance AND (according to NBC News, emphasis below is mine)…
Congress’ approval rating has plummeted eight points, bringing it below even Bush’s. And just one in five believe the country is on the right track, which is the lowest number on this question in nearly 15 years.
No news yet on whether or not we’ll be seeing President Bush in front of the fireplace wearing a sweater and speaking of a “Crisis of Confidence” (ala Jimmy Carter and the national malaise).
