According to Bruce Reed at Slate, George W. Bush has now caught his father George H.W. Bush. The two are tied with the third highest presidential disapproval rating in the Gallup Poll since World War II — 60 percent.
Nixon is second at 66 percent disapproval; Truman number one at 67. Jimmy Carter is fifth at 59.
“Truman needed seven years to hit bottom, Nixon six, and Bush the son five. The elder Bush tanked in three and a half.”
