Wow. 34% approval rating for President Bush, according to the just-released CBS poll. I think even by the technical dictionary definition, that blows.

Here's a question: who can put that into some historical perspective for us. What presidents got below the magic 35% line? And when? I think I have pretty clear recollection of Bush's dad getting into similar territory in 1992. But who has more data?

Late Update: TPM Reader AJ sends in this helpful historical poll run-down. Perhaps more relevant is this run-down of second-term numbers from CBS.
