I don't think we have the luxury of picking bad over very bad any more. We need to stop the train now or our fate is out of our hands.

>>bush certainly put hints out there about his 'compassionate conservatism'<<

Only time will tell, but I think Romney would be better.

>>> his 'compassionate conservatism' read: gov't spending was in his mind....<<<<<

Politicians forget that numbers matter. I'm impressed with the fact that our good Uncle borrows and spends about $125 billion more *each month* than what he collects in taxes. How much is this per each gainfully employed productive person? A thousand or so? Probably more. And this is not all they spend, it's just the part that comes from new borrowing. And they pretend that this is normal.

They are insane, and the economists who give them theoretical "cover" are also insane.
