Media recognizing that Bush is unpopular?

It's striking that the media narrative is finally shifting to acknowledge the fact that Bush is a very unpopular president. Here's a brutal but accurate excerpt from the Washington Post:

Bush's problems go beyond the fatigue factor [among his staff]. An unpopular foreign war, high energy prices and the nation's worst natural disaster in decades have dragged his poll ratings down to the lowest level of any second-term president, other than Richard M. Nixon, in the last half-century.

And remember, these poll numbers are consistent with the little appreciated fact that Bush's reelection was the narrowest since Woodrow Wilson...
