Did I say it was based on a comparison of policies? I did not. Policy positions are less important than the ability to implement one's policies IMO. Even Presidents can't just decide what they think the best policy is and then flip some switch to make it happen. In that regard I think Obama (along with McCain) has a great chance because he will work with people on both sides of the aisle.

>>>ACK!!!!

>>>Different faces, same problem as last election - the Democrat candidates are a total joke and the Republican candidates are a bunch of old men with old ideas. I'd rather elect the latter and then fight them at every turn.

>>Obama a joke? Have you listened to him speak even once? Have you not noticed the enthusiasm among young voters, people who have seen no reason to get involved in the electoral process until now?
