Portgate: America vs. Bush
The numbers are in. Americans are overwhelmingly against the deal to allow a U.A.E.-owned company to assume control of some of America's largest ports. Ron Brownstein of the L.A. Times reports here.
The Times/Bloomberg poll puts Bush's approval rating at 38 percent, his disapproval rating at 58 percent. "And, in a trend that could affect turnout in the November midterm elections, Bush confronts what might be called an intensity gap: The percentage of Americans who said they strongly disapproved of his performance on a wide range of issues greatly exceeded the share who strongly approved."
I know that my own intensity has been increasing to record levels. It's good to see that the American people are reaching the same conclusions.
