Citing no evidence, NY Times reported Bush's poll numbers "beginning to inch up"

In fact, a review of eight major polls released in the week preceding Stolberg's report revealed that polls showing President Bush's approval rating either declining or remaining steady outnumbered polls showing an increase.
