Go easy on the popular guy! Unless …
So reporter Jessica Yellin says ABC News execs told her to go easy on President Bush when his approval ratings were high (here from Politico). No surprise there.

Here’s a guarantee. If Obama wins in November, the mainstream media will attack his every hiccup, regardless of how high his approval ratings are.
