Neither Clinton has any idea of what is right or wrong, only what is popular or unpopular. They don't care how things ARE, they only care how things look.
And, President Bush is the opposite. he spends political capital at will....safe in the knowledge that history will be his only important judge. Besides, President Bush hasn't done that badly at the polls anyway.
He's an awkward public speaker but, President Bush certainly is trying to do what's right.
