Thursday's poll found more Americans believe Democratic leaders would
move the country in the right direction than would Bush.
Fifty percent of those surveyed expressed support for the Democrats,
while 34 percent expressed confidence in Bush.
The war remains widely unpopular among Americans.
Figures released earlier this week showed that 63 percent opposed the
war, while 34 percent still support the four-year-old conflict.

WASHINGTON (CNN) --
Ahead of a national address on the war in Iraq, Americans remain
deeply skeptical about the policies President Bush is pursuing and
unhappy with his job performance, according to a CNN poll released
Thursday.
President Bush is expected to announce his plans for cutting back U.S.
troop numbers in Iraq.
The president's approval rating in the survey was 36 percent --
unchanged from an August poll and barely above where it was in
January.
At the same time, 61 percent of those polled disapprove of Bush's
performance in office -- and the same number said they believe his
policies are taking the country in the wrong direction.
