I think we've been through that before.

There is no comparison between polls of one man's policies and actions vs polls of a body of 535 men/women with various competing policies and positions....which nearly always have put Congress's approval rating lower than any recent President.

More important than the polls of a president's job performance are the "country is on the right track/wrong track" polls....and those are hovering around a historically low 20% "right track"..... http://pollingreport.com/right.htm

With "right track" number so low, you would think it would have a negative impact on the majority party in Congress as much as the President, but most Congressional election polls have Democrats picking up 3-5 seats in the Senate and 12-15 seats in the House in the Nov election.
