Congress Somehow Manages to Become Even More Unpopular

WASHINGTON, DC - DECEMBER 19:  Speaker of the House U.S. Rep. John Boehner (R-OH) answers reporters' questions during a brief news conference on the payroll tax vote outside his office at the U.S. Capitol December 19, 2011 in Washington, DC. Boehner said he expects the House will vote to move the payroll tax holiday and unemployment benefits legislation into conference instead of passing the version sent over by the Senate last weekend.

Only 10 percent of Americans approve of Congress right now, according to Gallup, surpassing the poll's previous record low of 11 percent, set in December. Just get it over with, John McCain.
