My wife's dad is about to turn 80 and it's a durn good thing that Clinton isn't in office or Gore either. The old guy just kept sitting in front of the TV on election night mumbling about having nothing to lose and everything to gain...especially for the next generation. I tell you, it was scary. Here is a guy who won the DFC in WWII with the famed Black Sheep squadron for being a triple ace...that's 15 air to air kills, folks. He was "dead" serious.

Speaking of nothing to lose, during WWII the Phillipine guerilla fighters who had lost their whole families to the Japanese and literally had nothing left to lose were some of the fiercest and most feared fighters in the war.

So instead we got Bush, and the problem persists. What difference did it make?
