The rule of thumb ordsprog

The rule of thumb is the lower the approval rating for Congress, the lower the approval rating for the party in control. The more vulnerable the seat, the greater pressure to stick it out. If it's vacated, it's most likely to flip to the other side.

If voters are in a Florio anti-tax mood, his approval rating will suffer. If he's able to convince them that tax increases are necessary to maintain state services they want, then his approval rating, while not going up sharply, should not be too badly damaged.

[The Democrats] lost in large part because of the ethics problems. Now only 11 years later, we have the Republicans acting just like the Democrats and maybe even worse. Worse yet, they're acting like nobody cares even though their approval rating is only 36 percent, a low comparable to the '94 approval rating [of the Democrat-controlled Congress].

Yes, we've seen his numbers drop among Democrats, but he still enjoys a good approval rating among Democrats. And his support for the war has helped boost him with Republicans, which has kept his overall approval rating high.

We've got a dictatorial president and a Justice Department that does not want Congress involved. Your guy's acting like he's king. His dad was at a 90 percent approval rating and he lost! And the same thing can happen to him!

Nobody wants to take a sharp stick and poke it in the eye of the president no matter what his approval rating is. He is too strong with Republican primary voters and three years from now he will remember anyone who votes against his nominee.

Five years ago, this wouldn't have been on the radar screen. But now, we have a strong county executive whose approval rating is in the 80's, a revitalized party, and a candidate who will be in the majority and can deliver for the district.

Congress has a terrible approval rating, and they need something to avoid talking about the issues that people want them to talk about. Wouldn't it be great to have people focus on same-sex marriage instead of the corruption issues facing Congress?

Solid majorities support Bush's impeachment for his Iraq War lies (53%-42%) and for his illegal wiretapping (52%-43%). And these polls were taken before George Bush sold vulnerable port operations to the royal family of Dubai, which sent his approval rating plummeting down to 34%.
