Compare the two Presidents

This CNN/USA Today/Gallup Poll was just released: (PollingReport)

"Since the start of 2001 when George W. Bush became president, in general, would you say his presidency has been a success or failure?"

Success - 42%
Failure - 55%
Unsure - 3%

Compare that with the CNN/USA Today/Gallup Poll taken in January of 1999, when President Clinton was in the midst of facing impeachment: (PollingReport)

"Since the start of 1993 when Bill Clinton became president, in general, would you say his presidency has been a success or a failure?"

Success - 77%
Failure - 20%
No Opinion - 3%

So when progressives like myself contend that President Bush has lost his political capital, we mean it.  And when we remind everyone that lying about sex does not even come close to lying about why to send a nation to war, we take things like this seriously, especially when it involves our brave men and women in uniform that are serving all of us.
