SurveyUSA - 50 State Governor Approval

SurveyUSA - 50 State Governor Approval

Another 50 state survey, governors this time. A few interesting notes:

  • Gray Davis' Revenge: AHnold ranks 48th, with a net -33% disapproval. That puts him BEHIND Ernie "Under Indictment" Fletcher of Kentucky, but well ahead of Bob "Faded Genes" Taft of Ohio, who has a net -62 yet has the chutzpah not to resign.

  • On the other hand, REPLACING a crook does wonders, as Republican Jodi Rell of blue Connecticut ranks #2 with a +54.

  • Dave Heineman of Nebraska is a +37 in a Big Red state - yet is probably going to lose his primary next year when Coach Osborne comes home to Lincoln.

  • Of all those mentioned for the presidency, only Mark Warner of Virginia ranks really high. Most are in the middle of the pack (with Vilsack right at 25th), but Pataki is in the bottom ten and net -8; he may be running for president because he can't get re-elected.
