President Bush's job approval rating in New Hampshire hit a low for his presidency -- 24 percent -- in a poll released Wednesday.
Seventy-two percent of those polled disapproved of Bush's performance in the University of New Hampshire poll for CNN and WMUR-TV.
"Republicans are still modestly supporting Bush," said poll director Andrew Smith. "But there has to be real concern among Republicans that animosity toward Bush will drag down other Republicans, such as Sen. John Sununu, in 2008."
It comes three days after a Research 2000 poll for the Concord Monitor in which 28 percent of 600 regular voters rated Bush's job performance good or better. That poll, conducted July 9-11, had a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 5 percentage points.
