Sad, but in some ways very true.
On the flip side, Obama IS talking about change. And while he is a senator, it's amusing that some point to his "inexperience" as a detraction.

While on the flip side, his inexperience should also count towards mitigating what you discuss above.

I remember a phrase (I believe Douglas Adams) that states that those who can be elected to office should by no means be allowed to serve. Those who would be best at serving their country in office often have no willingness to serve in office.
Colin Powell anyone?
I would consider Obama his willingness to serve and fulfill what his political platform says.

I believe this poll, but I also find some public hypocisy on display here...

Huckabee is a Governor not in the Congressional loop, but has seen his hopes pretty much dry up...

That leaves 3 people to "clean up Washington"...

A senator, another senator, and another senator...

Understand how stupid that sounds?

The public believes that Washington and the people who run this country suck, so the choices they'll end up voting for are...the VERY SAME PEOPLE part of the system they claim sucks...
Now that the Presidential election is on, this will help us see the bigger picture of choosing a good leader. We don't want another Bush to lead us into more demise.
