According to an article on CNN, the 75% of Americans do not approve of the job congress has been doing. This is bad news for Democrats, who control both houses. Last year’s victory in the midterm elections was mostly due to the fact that the Republican-controlled houses held a 63% disapproval rate. It appears that the Democrats have not been progressive enough to appease voters. What impact will this have on the 2008 elections? Time will tell.
