Bob the problem is misery loves company and cutting off your nose to spite your face is not a sign of wisdom but gross immaturity. The idea of electing someone who will cause more damage is not sound as these setbacks are not easy to recover from. For example we are still suffering from Bubba’s excessive military cuts as it is difficult to reconsitute forces that are fully trained & battle ready. The shortage of ground troops has hurt our Iraq operation in many ways and we still have lots of work to do to undo Bubba’s damage. Obama can put us in much worse condition.
You beat me to it, DarthVader; I made pretty much the same points before seeing your post.
Not eight years, well OK 7+, years of difficult. The Bush Administration has fought the war on the cheap. A lot of the blame for that goes to Rumsfeld of course, but ultimately the President is supposed to be the leader.
