Apparently nobody likes him

More than half of Tennesseans don't want another Bush in '08

This result comes from a recent MTSU-led public opinion poll conducted by phone to 626 random people in the state.

Here's some other stats from the poll:

-Bush's TN approval rating: 42%. This time last year his approval rating was 55%.
-58% of Tennesseans don't want the Bush leadership style in the next president
-Only 35% of Tennesseans want a Bush-like president in '08
-One fourth rate the war in Iraq as the number one problem for the country (a problem which Bush created from nothing). The economy (another Bush created problem) came in second at 12%
-Only 31% of Tennesseans are satisfied with the direction the nation is headed in. 63% are dissatisfied.
-Bush has even lost support among evangelical Christians, falling from 62% last year to 48% this year.

Wow, when you lose your base in the Bible Belt, you must be doing something wrong. I sure hope for his sake the interim elections go well for the Republicans, or these last two years of his are gonna be a nightmare.
