Political Wire: Americans Doubt Bush But Don't Embrace Democrats

Political Wire quotes the results of a recent poll:

"Americans are increasingly pessimistic about the direction of the country, less supportive of President Bush’s policies and doubtful of his competence in appointing key officials," the latest Diageo/Hotline poll finds. "At the same time, there has been no major shift in support for Democrats."

Yet more proof that the Democrats need to actually stand for something and earn voter support rather than simply standing back and watching Bush flap in the wind. Or maybe it's time we just ditch the two equally useless parties entirely.
