More bad polls if you're watching

CNN/USAToday/Gallup - Bush 38% approval, 60% disapprove

Seventy-three percent of those polled said they believe a civil war is likely in Iraq within the year, while only 20 percent said such a conflict could be avoided. And only 44 percent said they believe the United States will win the conflict there -- down from 49 percent in a December poll.

The number of Americans who believe the United States will lose the conflict rose from 47 percent in December to 52 percent in this week's poll. And 55 percent said they believe the U.S. invasion that toppled Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein in 2003 was a mistake.

LATimes/Bloomberg - Bush 38% approval, 58% disapprove - 75% against the port deal

FoxNews - Bush 39% approval, 54% disapprove

So, the CBS poll at 34% approval was an outlier, but the trend seems solid. As always, the best clearinghouse site for a broad look at multiple polls is pollingreport.com.

If you haven't guessed, the trend is floundering down.
