Abstract:
|
Recently published SurveyUSA polls provide data to compare partisan evaluations of the job performances of President George W. Bush and the U.S. senators in all fifty states. The comparison shows that Bush is not only a far more polarizing figure than virtually every senator, but that evaluations of the president and the senators, and the degree to which they polarize state electorates, are driven by quite different sets of factors. State partisanship and ideology almost completely determine presidential approval, while senators inspire polarized responses to the extent that they vote like ideologues or party loyalists and take the lead in partisan battles in Washington. Thus senators can and often do avoid polarizing constituents by prudently adopting voting patterns that reflect local political sentiments. |
