Cheney Least Popular Veep in History

Vice President Dick Cheney’s popularity has hit an all-time low, according to a new New York Times/CBS News poll, "suggesting that he has replaced Dan Quayle as the most unpopular vice president in recent history."

"Two polls taken in May and June reveal an erosion of Mr. Cheney’s base of support -- seen in both his job approval rating and his favorability. Just 28% of those polled in June approve of the job Mr. Cheney is doing, while 59% disapprove -- a reading similar to that of President Bush."

Cheney’s favorability among Americans has also suffered, falling to just 13%.
