"This President is going to lead us out of this recovery." -- Dan Quayle
With George W. Bush struggling to stay relevant in his final 22 months in the White House, his administration is looking more and more like the incredible shrinking presidency.
He finds himself increasingly hemmed in by public approval ratings stuck in the low 30 percent range, a hostile Democratic majority in Congress and an unpopular war that has eroded his credibility at home and abroad."The real danger is that the president becomes politically irrelevant, that he presides instead of leads," said Terry Madonna, a political scientist at Franklin and Marshall College in Pennsylvania.

Final 22 long months, he could do so much damage. I can't believe his ratings are that high, no way.
Well, you know those numbers were fudged. He got to be in the low 20's...
