Who cares what his popularity will be? Bush has no more elections to win.
PD I know its hard for you to understand, but Bush does things not to be popular, but because he thinks it is the right thing to do. It is called leadership. Anyone can take polls, and flip flop.

I'm not suggesting that Bush has or should convene focus groups to determine what he should or should not do, always with an eye on his polling numbers.
But Mike, if you think don't think the popularity of a President has an impact on his ability to govern and to push forward his agenda, you have an even more shallow knowledge and understanding of American history than I give you credit for.
