A survey of college students, conducted this month for Harvard University’s Institute of Politics, found that 61 percent approve of Bush’s job performance<\/b>. That is significantly higher than what most polls of the general population have reported. The most recent Washington Post-ABC News survey placed Bush’s approval rating at 53 percent. <\/p>\n
