Bush's Numbers Are Good and Getting Better

Compare these numbers to the ones prior to the administration going on the offensive. Amazing what bypassing the Entrenched Media and going directly to the people can do.

Wednesday December 21, 2005--Forty-seven percent (47%) of American adults approve of the way George W. Bush is performing his role as President. That's up three points since the President's speech on Sunday night.

These results are based upon nightly telephone surveys and reported on a three-day rolling average basis. Approximately two-thirds of the interviews for today's update were completed after the President's speech.

President's Speech Boosts Confidence in War on Terror
In a survey conducted following the President's Sunday night speech, 50% of Americans believe the U.S. and its allies are winning the War on Terror. That's up from 44% immediately before the speech. It is also the highest level of optimism measured in 2005.

Forty-two percent (42%) now expect things to get better in Iraq over the next six months. That's up from 37% before the speech.

Huge partisan differences remain on all question relating to Iraq and the War on Terror.

Forty percent (40%) of Americans now give the President good or excellent marks for handling the situation in Iraq. That's up from 35% before the speech.

The number giving the President poor marks on Iraq declined to 39% from 42%. This is the first time all year that the number giving the President good or excellent marks has matched the number saying poor.
