We'll see soon. On the fifth of January, he had a 37% approval rating. As soon as Gallup does another, we'll know the effect of the speech. Personally, I don't think it will go up or down more than 2% maximum. The people who like him will keep on supporting him, people like me will continue to dislike him. A surge of troops isn't shocking to me... the AEI called for it. I find it amazing that as of 2001, Clinton's approval rating was almost twice that of Bush's current one. It gives me some faith in America.

I can't imagine very much. None of his speeches, especially ones regarding the US involvement in the Iraq war, have had much effect in the last year or so.

No... and if it does, I think it will just go down. We didn't want a surge of soldiers, but what did he do? He created a sur... oh, he 'increased' the amount of troops, pardon me. It's totaly different. And just 3 seconds ago, he said something about young americans approving the war. I hope his approval went down for that alone.

There will be a temporary uptick, but it will return to the present level soon thereafter.
-
I think his approval rating most likely will drop even more.
-
If it doesn't drop more, I think it will remain about the same. He has a loyal following of sheep who think he can do no wrong - they will approve of him no matter what he does or says, and I think they will help him maintain a 30% plus approval rating.
-
I don't think it will move an inch. If it does it will go down, recent polls suggest 70% of the nation opposes sending more troops to Iraq.

I dont know, but I already approve of him 100% so it doesnt matter to me.
