“What is something that is very, very small?”

Dick Cheney’s aprroval rating has sunk to 19 percent.

Cheney is now two points less popular than cheating on your spouse. He’s seven points behind corporal punishment in schools. The number of people who believe alien beings have secretly contacted the U.S. government now leads Dick Cheney by 18 points.

On the posative side, Cheney is still 7 points ahead of those who think the United States should have a British-style royal family.

Bush is still showing signs of competativeness; he trails the number of people who think astrology is scientific by only five points–very close to being a statistical dead heat.

I expect these posative notes to start showing up in Republican talking points any day now.
