I'm not sure the public wants sweeping changes. Witness Clinton's try at health care reform, a political disaster. At least Clinton could blame failures on a republican controlled house, Bush will not have that luxury. The economy is not falling apart, simply a normal economic retraction after a long expansion. A normal event, but many will miss the signs. People living within their means are little affected by economic swings, but what about those living beyond their means?

Steven: You seem stuck on the fact that "half the voting public voted for Bush," or "etter than half the voting public did not want him or his platform to begin with." Let me remind you that Gore did not receive a majority (less than 51 percent) of the vote either. So any evidence that Bush receives less than the majority vote here used to support any argument you might have in support of Al Gore carries little, if any weight. The bottom line is that if Al Gore deserved to be president he would have carried his home state, and he would not have allowed Ralph Nader to undermine his Democratic base.
