At times Hound does respond well to facts and logic. Where she really struggles is when it comes to Bush. It is a sad fact that a good many people made a very bad voting decision based on their hatred of Bush and the mistaken notion that they are punishing him by voting for BO over McCain. Sadly, they and the rest of us were the ones that are being punished. Former President Bush should never have been the main driver for voting BO in these difficult times but it was a great political strategy. Keep in mind, the incompetence of FDR and his administration lengthened the depression by many years but it was a good political strategy to stay in power (ala, elected three times). I do think things were so bad that if it weren't for the specter of WWII FDR would have certainly lost to Wilkie.

I would say that I am not sure McCain would have been significantly better but he certainly would have been incrementally better and I think he would have nominated a much more competent administration than we have seen with BO. The only downside is we would not have collected the hundreds of thousands of back taxes from the cheats nominated to various political positions.
