In spite of Bush's win, the majority of Americans still think the country is headed in the wrong direction (56%), think the war wasn't worth fighting (51%), and don't approve of the job George W. Bush is doing (52%).

People like me who grew up in a working-class town, who don't have a college education, you don't usually hear from us.
