It typically refers to second-term presidents, who are unable to pass [[legislation]], as [[Congress]] may stall until the next presidential election to pass its legislation.
[[George Bush]] is currently a lame duck as the [[Democrat]]-controlled Congress is unwilling to work with him, despite the support of the American people for his policy objectives.
