Bush approval ratings; still lower than earthworms

I’m not sure what Bush is going to say tonight at the State of the Union address. I think that he will try to avoid Iraq. He will turn to domestic issues like energy. He will pump up the economy. He will talk about the threat from Iran and North Korea. He will stay away from Afghanistan which is a disaster.

Here’s a chart of Bush’s approval/disapproval ratings.
