PEW: Laura Bush’s popularity drops.

[kpete]

Laura Bush’s popularity drops.A recent Pew Research Center poll finds that First Lady Laura Bush’s favorability rating has dropped “sharply” in recent years, right along with her husband’s numbers. Once “almost universally liked” (with a 70 percent approval rating in Aug. 2004), just a slim majority of Americans (54 percent) now have a favorable impression of the first lady.

6. Don't blame Barney!

He's probably being held hostile anyway! He runs away from B*sh every chance he gets.

3. When was the last time you had a measurable opinion about a "nobody"

I would be inclined to support Ms. Laura, as a co-woman so to speak,
and I would disregard who she married and stayed with, if I could-
but her main 7 year accomplishment of pasting on a smile, and waving jerkily at God only knows whom, is just not quite enough to impress me.

She is too drugged to even vary the angle of that smile.
She in a colorless way reminds me of pablum or oatmeal. As I already said she is unaccomplished and almost invisible.

Other than that I just can't see what's wrong with her.

4. So the xanex queen is losing her luster, huh?

I guess stock in the stepford wives company just dropped.
