Irene Hull, a Democratic supporter from Seattle, was keeping her fingers crossed on election day last year hoping to see the U.S. Senate and U.S. House come under Democratic control. With the Democratic party recently coming under attack for ineffective leadership after taking over Congress, I wonder if Ms. Hull's fingers are still crossed.A recent Zogby poll (mid-July) gives the Democrat-controlled Congress a 15% approval rating. President Bush shouldn't smile too broadly, however, because his approval rating dropped another point to just 32%.
