Now that you've elected him, you don't like him?

YOU VOTED FOR HIM! NOT ME!

The survey found that Bush’s overall job approval rating stood at 47 percent, matching his all-time low in Post-ABC News polls. Half disapproved of the job he is doing as president.

On several other key measures of performance, Bush’s standing with the public was at or near new lows, with less than half the public supporting the way the president is handling the economy, energy policy and Iraq. Four in 10 approved of Bush’s handling of the economy, down six points since the start of the year. Slightly more than a third of the public approved of Bush’s energy policies, and Americans were more inclined to blame the president rather than oil companies or other countries for soaring gasoline prices.

Just over four in 10 -- 42 percent -- endorsed the way the president is dealing with the situation in Iraq, a slight increase from the all-time low in March of 39 percent. Almost six in 10 (58 percent) said the United States has gotten bogged down there, and 39 percent said they are confident Iraq will have a stable, democratic government in a year.

I still think there are many people who simply didn't want/know Kerry. After all, we had only two basic choices. And Kerry didn't do very much to differentiate himself. I think that more people would have voted Bush out if the Dems had put forth a better candidate (note: I don't have anything personally against Kerry. This is just my opinion.) I know lots of people who say they voted for Bush because they at least knew where he stood. *sigh*
