2%

And I don't think it's such an outlier.

In what may turn out to be one of the biggest free-falls in the history of presidential polling, President Bush's job-approval rating among African Americans has dropped to 2 percent, according to a new NBC/Wall Street Journal poll.

The drop among blacks drove Bush's overall job approval ratings to an all-time low of 39 percent in this poll. By comparison, 45 percent of whites and 36 percent of Hispanics approve of the job Bush is doing.


His approval among African-Americans in similar polls is around 12%. There's quite a margin of error in that particular NBC/WSJ poll, as only 89 blacks were surveyed. Which likely means that 1 out of the 89 approved of the President. What I want to know is, how did Condi have the time to do the poll? Isn't she busy?
