Given the sleazy way he was appointed to the Senate, it should be no surprise that Roland Burris' approval ratings are at 14 percent favorable, 60 percent unfavorable per PPP.
What's more amazing is that anyone in the Senate could be more unpopular than Burris, but it's true. There's Blanche Lincoln, at 27 percent favorable, 62 percent unfavorable. Ouch. And she somehow thinks she has a chance to be in the Senate in 2011?
But get this, Lincoln isn't the most unpopular senator. That dubious title goes to...
Joe Lieberman: 25 percent favorable, 67 percent unfavorable.
Seems that local constituents agree with our very own list of the worst Senators.
Burris and Lincoln will be gone after this year. The only question regarding Lieberman is whether he takes the easy way out and retires, or whether Connecticut voters get the chance to forcibly retire him.
