Watch Out Iran, Bush and GOP's Poll Numbers Tank.

Desperate people will do desperate things.

President Bush has hit new lows in public opinion for his handling of Iraq
and the war on terror and for his overall job performance. Polling also shows
the Republican Party surrendering its advantage on national security.

The AP-Ipsos survey is loaded with grim election-year news for a party
struggling to stay in power. Nearly 70 percent of Americans believe the nation
is headed in the wrong direction — the largest percentage during the Bush
presidency and up 13 points from a year ago.

"These numbers are scary. We've lost every advantage we've ever had," GOP
pollster Tony Fabrizio said. "The good news is Democrats don't have much of a
plan. The bad news is they may not need one."
