Interesting, I was going by memory. Johnson decided to not run for reelection you'll recall, which may have stopped the slide. Just a guess.
And what's kinda funny is that G.W Bush holds the record for the highest rating. Truman is in 3rd. The voters sure are a fickle bunch. Highest approval rating George W. Bush holds the record with 90% (9/21-22/2001 -- after the September 11 attacks). George H. W. Bush is second highest, with 89% (2/28/-3/3/1991 -- after the Persian Gulf War). Harry S Truman is third highest, with 87% (6/1-5/1945 -- after V-E Day). Franklin D. Roosevelt is fourth highest, with 84% (1/8-13/1942 -- after Pearl Harbor).
Looks like they put it aside for wartime. Bush had a lot of controversy his last term. I wonder who would have won if Perot never entered the race?
I'd vote for Obama over Mark Stanford,David vittor,Larry Craig,George bush,dick Chaney,Sarah palin,bobby jindal,mark foley etc any day
