That must be why the mainstream media love Bush so much today

Nicholas Kristof today:

I've seen firsthand how Mr. Bush can turn on the charm when he needs to. In his 2000 campaign, Mr. Bush started off so high in the polls that he was contemptuous of journalists, treating us like French presidents. Then he got walloped in the New Hampshire primary, and all of a sudden he began charming the socks off reporters. It's time to try the same trick with six billion foreigners.
