Right now, I don't know WHAT Obama will be if he's elected.

Just like I didn't know what Bush or Clinton or Bush I or Reagan would be.

I had HIGH hopes for Reagan because he made such a Big Deal about how big our DEFICIT was in 1980. He even gave this little analogy about our deficit was so big that if you put it into dollar bills end to end it would reach to the moon and back.

Our deficit was about $1 Trillion when he went into office. When he left office it was about $3 Trillion. So he was a big disappointment to me. It had taken 200 years to get to a $1 Trillion deficit and he managed to TRIPLE it in 8 years.

So...if Obama gets elected, I don't really know if he'll be any good or not.
