A surprise for Chris Matthews

[Disagreeable]

"Matthews still "amazed" Bush is unpopular

[i]On the March 15 edition of MSNBC's Hardball, host Chris Matthews was incredulous and "amazed" when confronted with a March 10-13 NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll showing that just 39 percent of respondents expressed "positive" feelings toward President Bush, compared with 50 percent who expressed "negative" feelings. In a discussion of the poll, Mathews admitted, "I'm amazed when 50 percent of the people don't like him -- just don't like this guy."

He's tried his best to ignore the polls, but this one finally seems to be too much even for a professional spin doctor. My emphasis.
