Bush Approval at 35% and Dropping, But Look at Cheney
From Think Progress:
Vice President Cheney seems to have brushed off the felony charges against his most senior aide:The criminal indictment of the vice president’s chief of staff, a rare moment in White House history, does not appear to have derailed Dick Cheney’s career — or even his routine.
But the American people haven’t:
The vice president has replaced the aide, I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby, with two other longtime assistants and seems prepared to continue his role as a central player in the Bush presidency, particularly on foreign policy and the Iraq war.Vice President Cheney has never been as popular as the president, but his favorable rating is down nine points this year to just 19 percent.
