Reid's popularity falls among Nevadans

I am only writing this one because it amuses me to see that Harry Reid, in his own state, is more unpopular to his constituents than George Bush is.

Thats what you call a state that is not happy with their Senator.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's appeal among Nevadans has plunged dramatically in a new Review-Journal poll, which finds him viewed unfavorably by most likely voters in his home state.

Reid is still slightly more well-liked than Gov. Jim Gibbons. Both the Democratic senator and the Republican governor are less favorably viewed than President Bush.


Thats funny.

The Review-Journal last asked Nevadans their opinion of Reid in early May. At that time, he was seen favorably by 46 percent and unfavorably by 42 percent.

Even that was seen as alarming for Reid because his favorability did not top 50 percent and because the difference between the two numbers was only 4 percentage points. It continued a slide for Reid that coincides with his taking the Democratic leadership after his re-election in 2004, with 61 percent of the vote.

The new poll marks the first time the Review-Journal has measured Reid's unfavorable rating higher than his favorable number.


That is even funnier.

[Update] Rush Limbaugh is on that list also and he holds a higher approval rating than Reid also!!!!

Ok, so now, I am just giggling my ass off.
