How would you sum up the last 8 years? A success?

No, but the majority of people agreed to go to war, then pulled the rug out from under him. You also can't blame the rising gas prices solely on him, and those are the two major things people would point to for approval ratings. Also, the people would point to the deficit, yet everyone was more than happy to spend their refund check. So, no, I would not count any of those against his tenure.
Approval ratings mean nothing, and you know it. It's like Polls, they are useless.
