The History News Network recently conducted a non-scientific poll of 109 professional historians and found that 61 percent rate Bush presidency as the worst yet. Thirty-five percent of those surveyed rated him in the bottom ten, and only four respondents put him in the top two-thirds. A whopping 98.2 percent assessed his presidency as a "failure." And that's with 9 months still to go. Meanwhile, Prospect fearless leader Harold Meyerson was on top of this all the way back in 2003 in his cover story on "the most dangerous president ever."
