From the article:
"You don't get any feeling of somebody crouching down in the bunker," said a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute who talked to Baker. "This is either extraordinary self-confidence or out of touch with reality. I can't tell you which."
Bush's setbacks are manifold. "No modern president has experienced such a sustained rejection by the American public," Baker writes. "Bush's approval rating slipped below 50 percent in Washington Post-ABC News polls in January 2005 and has not topped that level in the 30 months since. The last president mired under 50 percent so long was Harry S. Truman. Even Richard M. Nixon did not fall below 50 percent until April 1973, 16 months before he resigned."
