Poll question: DU Approval Ratings: Barbara Boxer
John Kerry Approve: 79% Disapprove: 18% No Opinion: 3%
Hillary Clinton Approve: 46% Disapprove: 46% No Opinion: 8%
Howard Dean Approve: 84% Disapprove: 13% No Opinion: 3%
Harry Reid Approve: 87% Disapprove: 13%

Do you approve or disapprove of the job Barbara Boxer is doing as U.S. Senator, or do you have no opinion?

10. Thanks
I plan to do more, though I don't expect this one to show much disapproval (other than the freeper trolls.) If anyone wants a specific poll, just let me know, and I'll do it next time.

13. There are several I'd love to see....
Wes Clark, Bill Clinton, John Edwards, Evan Bayh, Bill Richardson and maybe even some Republicans like the Schwartzenneger, Chafee or McCain.

14. I agree with Rowdyboy & I love these polls!
Keep it up. It really gives a good idea of where we stand.

I'd also like to see Edwards, Bill Clinton, Bayh. I'd have to add Feingold.

Some Republicans would be interesting too. If only just to see how much they are hated. The results would probably vary more.

19. Bernie's about to become a US Senator
He's the most popular politician in Vermont and Jeffords is not running again so it's almost a given that he'll pick up Jeffords' seat.

7. There were several people here bitching about her vote for Negroponte...
Saying she had betrayed her states voters etc etc etc. Sorry, IMO she's about as good as it gets in the senate (until Bernie Sanders from Vermont gets there, that is!)

24. That's the vote rollercoaster for ya
Some tried to do the same with Feingold, though he's a solid Dem Senator. You'd think his being the only one voting against Patriot would shield him from such things, but whatcha gonna do.

11. Certainly all the Democrats
Eventually. I don't know if putting up polls for Lieberman or any Republicans would do any good, since we know the approval would be in the single digits.

20. A few days ago, I would have voted to approve.
Now, with her vote for Negorponte, I don't know what to think. I wrote her off last time she voted for the fan of death squads; I have no idea how I'll approach this new betrayal.

I cannot find a satisfactory answer to explain why she voted as she did. Kerry, too. I've heard the "saving fire for Bolton" line, and I think that's a bullshit rationalization.

So I can't vote. I can say I "mostly" approve, but that's about it.

21. Saw her speak at the Cali State Convention...
What a little spitfire. She looks alot taller on TV, but shes like 5'3 or something. Still, in recent months, she's definately grown a pair...TAking on Repugs twice her size and making them cry.

25. Barbara is my hero and my hope for the future...
I would love it if she were President and I think the country would benefit a great deal. She isn't always right but she's always fair and honest. Love her.

27. Boxer/Feingold or Feingold/Boxer sounds like a winning ticket for 2008.
I like her as POTUS the more I learn about her. I love my Senator Russ Feingold too. He would also make a good POTUS.
