Bush losing favor with men
This latest Newsweek poll (from PollingReport.com) is pretty amazing:
|
"In general, would you like to see George W. Bush reelected to another term as president, or not?" |
||||||
| Yes | No | Don't Know |
||||
| % | % | % | ||||
| ALL | 44 | 50 | 6 | |||
| Men | 45 | 51 | 4 | |||
| Women | 42 | 51 | 7 | |||
| Republicans | 86 | 10 | 4 | |||
| Democrats | 10 | 86 | 4 | |||
| Independents | 40 | 53 | 7 | |||
The gender gap on this question is virtually non-existent. Bush appears to be losing favor with men as much as women. I wonder if they still would like to have a beer with the guy?
The head-to-head numbers are also interesting in that Dean, Clark, Kerry, Lieberman and Gephardt all are within 4-5 points of Bush. Some look at these numbers and say that none of the candidates have broken out to challenge Bush. I look at these numbers and I see an electorate that is getting so sick of Bush that they will find any of these alternatives acceptable as a replacement.
Can we please stop harping on the electability question?
