sometimes it seems like the G.O.P would rather bash their opponent, rather then discuss policy. im sure for the handful of vets the republicans trotted out saying Kerry wasn't this and wasn't that, the Dem's could trot out the same amount of vets to counter this. but why was his service to his country even an issue? did anyone care when Dick Cheney said he had more important things to do then to serve in the armed forces? i really don't care about this stuff. all i want is someone, anyone, that is competent enough to run this complex country we live in. eight years of a total diaster should have evreyone clamouring for solid leadership.

Thats only because the Republican policy sucks so bad that they have to bash their opponent and descredit him or her. If they don't do that then they won't win any elections.

I agree to with the competency thing! I believe our President should be smart enough to know how many houses he owns!

I believe you have that backwards.

McCain has offered economic plans, energy plans that involve drilling and alternative forms of energy, a plan to complete the war in Iraq without suddenly surrendering, immigration ideas and many others.

Obama has preached about "change" and how he's "the chosen one". Please tell us what the change will be.

McCain not knowing how many homes he owns is not a big deal. Dude is loaded and his wife takes care of everything. What is a problem is him labeling Obama with the elitist tag and all the arugula talk.

"I don't know uhhhh maybe a hundred years" - John McCain on when we'll complete the war in Iraq without "Surrending".

Great plan John!

i don't think anyone has ever used the word surrender. and i could give a rats ass about immigration. it seems like McCain's big energy plan is to offer a bounty for coming up with a new battery, and the gas tax holiday, which to me is a joke. are we in agreement that drilling isn't the answer. or maybe just short term? the change i look for is just a different way of doing things in Washington. not just the old status quo. a new face, with hopefully new ideas.

Def nutso. I don't get why so many people see just the potential evil in others. I can disagree with people and not think they're bad. I disagree with a lot of what Obama believes but I'd drink a beer with the guy and talk basketball in a heart beat because he seems like a nice guy. Same with Bush.

Bill Clinton? Maybe but he's been a big dick for a while now. McCain? probably. Joe Biden? Not so much. He seems like a dick to me. Same with Cheney.

At the end of the day though whether I will vote someone has nothing to do with whether I like them on a personal note. Why anyone thinks Obama is some closet Muslim out to "get us" is beyond me and I wish those who tracked more with me politically would denounce that crap and talk about ideas.

Wait, I thought the original quote was that we were expecting a worse President after Bush.

Lincoln followed Buchanan - Arguably the greatest President ever.

Coolidge followed Harding - While not a "great" President, he presided over a period of prosperity, and is generally considered a good President.

F.D.R. followed Hoover - Certainly a great President and maybe the only other one in the same class as Lincoln and Washington.

If either McCain or Obama is the next Lincoln, F.D.R. or even Coolidge, I will: 1) Sit in the upper deck of the Linc in full Redskins attire shouting "Eagles suck"; and 2) discount all evidence of global warming as Hell most assuredly had frozen over.

Sorry, guess I misunderstood the original post. Damn my Republican ignorance!!!

I thought this was about a worse President at any point, not just the next President.
