40% is nothing. 0% would be troubling. 90% would be troubling.

That's the Democrat's voting record. The Republican vote in Congress is much higher. If you ever find a Democratic Congress Person who votes in step with Republicans most of the time - please elect that person.

Also, from reading the posts in this forum, it appears that most Democrats here do think Bush is always wrong.

I've never voted Democrat. Yet. But I agree that Bush is not always wrong. He's just wrong on most of the BIG issues.

Um... I think 70% of the country disagrees with you.

I never said anything about Bush's approval rating.

I stated that Obama voted in support of Bush 4 times out of 10.

Why would 70% of the country disagree with me on that?

Not at all.

Just a fact for Democrats to think about. Obama voted in line with Bush 40% of the time.
