Nearly 80% of Independents Disapprove of Bush's Performance

Wow. Posted at MyDD:

It's the number among the Independents that's gone way off the Bush reservation. Look at the spread:

Approve Disapprove
Republicans 84 12
Independents 17 75
Democrats 18 77

It's an alignment I've not seen in many years, since '98 probably. What it says is that Independents and Democrats have a potential new majority, apart from the lockstep Republicans.
