Bush senior was riding the Reagan popularity wave and a little of his own after slapping around Dan Rather.

Yeah, one thing 1988 has in common with 2004 is that both election seasons have seen Dan Rather exposed as a biased, arrogant fool. Then again, that could describe pretty much any period of time in the past few decades.

Bush has a huge likeability factor going for him. In this regard, I think he is different than his father-who, while a good President, just didn't connect with people. Of course, Bush Senior had to follow Ronald Reagan.
