A CBS News/NY Times find that majority of Americans feel that the King is driving our nation in the wrong direction.

Fifty-eight percent of Americans say their outlook on a second Bush term is generally optimistic - a low number when compared to Mr. Bush’s approval rating before his first term or Bill Clinton’s before his second. At the same time, 56 percent say the country is on the wrong track, versus 39 percent who say it is on the right track.

Where were you people on November 2nd?

Mr. Bush’s 49 percent approval rating at the start of his second term trails every re-elected U.S. president in the past half-century. By comparison, Bill Clinton’s approval rating was 60 percent, Ronald Reagan’s 62 percent and Dwight Eisenhower’s 73 percent at a similar point in their careers.

Even Richard Nixon - just a year and a half before he was forced to resign the presidency - fared better than Mr. Bush with an approval rating of 51 percent when he took his second oath of office in January 1973.

Hey buck-up, we know how Nixon’s second term ends, and I suspect that as the King’s court unravels, and the truth becomes known, we may see a repeat.
