NEW ORLEANS, Sept 7: A new poll released on Wednesday signalled mounting problems for President George W. Bush over his response to the Katrina disaster. The Gallup survey taken Monday and Tuesday found that 42 percent of Americans felt Bush had done a bad or terrible job of dealing with the storm and 35 percent rated his performance good or great.
Democratic Senator Hillary Clinton, tipped as a potential candidate to succeed Bush, sharply rejected the president’s bid to run his own probe and called Wednesday for an independent inquiry.—AFP
