Approval Rating of Congress Plunges

Washington, DC (TLS). Here is some interesting news for those of you who are politics and media watchers. The public's approval rating of Congress has plunged to a dismal 28% in a new Gallup poll.

Following the November 2006 election cycle, the public seemed ready to give the Democrats the benefit of the doubt, as approval ratings for Congress rose in the polls.
