Down, Down They Go

Down, Down They Go

The Carpetbagger Report: "Bush's approval rating among self-identified Republicans has dropped to 77%, which is still hard to explain but considerably lower than it's been over the last several years. Among Dems, 15% approve and 81% disapprove. But among [s]elf-identified independents, Bush's approval rating is just 21%, with 72% disapproving."

The most interesting thing, to me, is that self-identified Republicans are such outliers. Are self-identified independents actually liberals who dislike the label, or are the Republicans now composed of only the hard-core rightwingers?
