Original message:
I am interesting in the recent poll numbers for the Bush approval rating (29%).

Specifically, I would like to know for May 2006 what the following percentages were in the Harris Poll (number 38? on May 12, 2006).

Excellent
Good
Fair
Poor
Unsure

Thanks

That gives Bush 53% of people saying he did "Excellent, good, or only fair".

Note: Harris puts Excellent/Good results as Positive. Fair and Poor as Negative. Why? I am not sure. Maybe to make some good headlines?
