[quote]Washington (CNN)George W. Bush has turned his unpopularity upside down.
Six in 10 Americans, 61%, say they now have a favorable view of the 43rd President of the United States in the latest CNN poll conducted by SSRS, nearly double the 33% who gave him a favorable mark when he left the White House in January 2009.
His mark is lower than Barack Obama's 66% favorable rating in the same poll, but significantly higher than the 40% favorable rating for President Donald Trump.
Most of Bush's climb back to popularity came from Democrats and independents. His favorability mark among Democrats has soared from only 11% in February 2009 to a majority 54% now.[/quote]
