George W. Bush tanks nationally & in red state Kansas

Nationally, George W. Bush is beloved by 33 percent. I believe that's up a whopping 1 percent from last month in this poll released today.

In the heart of RepublicanLand -- Kansas -- Bush is loved (approved? tolerated) by a "huge" 37 percent in a survey conducted April 13 - 15. He's getting love from:

• 59 percent of the Kansas GOP
• 10 percent of Kansas Democrats
• 33 percent of Kansas independents

It can't be good news when that's the best you can do in the heartland.
