He still has time but it does not look good as folks start the positioning for 2008. My understanding is that Bush is not a workaholic. He is in bed by 9PM. While at the ranch, he likes to do ranch chores and of course he likes to exercise. Bill Clinton in contrast (although not very disciplined either) worked around the clock. He did not take exercise seriously. He probably jogged only so that he could stop at MacDonalds and he would occassionally go to the golf course taking a lot of mulligans. He was a policy wonk. Knew all the issues and immersed himself in all aspects of the Presidency. From what I read, he was still working on stuff as they physically moved him out of office. I didn't like him while he was in office with all the Lewinsky stuff, but since being out of office I have really got to liking him. Bush is far more likely to delegate. IMO if anything is going to get done, it will be left up to Cheney, Rumsfeld, and Karl Rove. Eisenhower was also good for delegating responsibilities. He left things up to John Dulles, Charlie Wilson, and Sherman Adams. I don't know how Nixon got into the mix of things. Eisenhower didn't seem to like him at all. However, I always liked Ike.
