A Newsweek poll has shown that President Bush's approval rating has fallen to a new low of 28 percent.
This is not just a new low for Mr Bush but also the lowest that this specific poll has ever recorded in a generation and the lowest for a Republican President since Jimmy Carter scored 28 percent in 1979.
The Bush effect has influences on the 2008 election candidates too, with all Republicans planning to stand having lower approval ratings than their Democratic equivalents. It was telling at the Republican debate in California that the President was hardly mentioned at all.
The Truthiness Blog Says ; When 2008 does roll round will the years 2001-2008 simply be written off in Presidential terms as a black hole for politics, democracy and the US? Or as he's so fond of saying, will history prove his critics wrong?
