Bush Approval Steady in MD

According to SurveyUSA, approval of President Bush in Maryland held steady this month at 34% (disapproval rose a point to 64%). While I suppose it is good news for the Maryland GOP that the Foley scandal didn't drag Bush down further here, the nearly 2-1 disapproval of Bush weighs like an anchor and explains why Republicans are avoiding Bush, even as they are happy to let him and his administration raise money for them, like typhoid this year.
