next election may not be so kind as the "bush factor' will be gone and the actual results of the past 4 yrs will be what the voters will look at , they will not listen to only the words

And thank goodness by then we'll have four years of information to look at, instead of three months!

I welcome that debate when the time comes.

any horse that had it easy and now will be in all out stretch

remember the ultimate outcome was easy , but he only got 52 or 53% of the vote , if things don't go as planned there will be trouble ahead
