Is John Kerry Willing to appear Unpopular?

The idea struck me this morning. His distinguishing characteristic as a candidate is that he is not-Bush. Bush is popular among some, but incredibly unpopular among other groups. Would Kerry be willing to make unpopular decisions? Is the ability to do so a necessary quality for the President to have? What do you think?
