Politics: Wee Little Bump

The traditional State of the Union poll bump appears to have been short lived for President Bush's single-minded march to war against official president-named-Bush-punching-bag Iraq. The Los Angeles Times polled 1,385 Americans and asked if we should roll over Iraq without the the backing of the UN Security Council. Only 30 percent said yes. 65 percent said we shouldn't. Otherwise, the President's poll numbers seemed okay except for one other:

On his handling of the economy, 45 percent of Americans approved and 47 percent disapproved. Just 12 percent said they believed Bush's economic plan will be very effective in reviving the economy.

Okay, now Democrats? What do we do with this information? Do we:
1) look all confused until President Bush shows 'genuine leadership'?
2) pounce on this opportunity (despite American attention-span fatigue over the Columbia disaster) and pound away at Bush's crazy budget and sky-rocketing deficits?
3) neither.

I think we all know the answer.
