Damn, that’s twice on my dates today. Excuse me while I go fire my fact-checker.

And for what it’s worth, I don’t know if I’d agree that the first President Bush was popular: before he imploded, Mike Dukakis had a healthy lead over Bush for significant part of the 1988 campaign; and in 1992 he lost.

G.H.W.B. might have been popular during the first Gulf War, but it certainly doesn’t seem to be fore a particularly long period of time.
