Election Wisdom

We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing, while others judge us by what we have already done.
~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Wasn't that quote prescient of this Presidential election? It certainly reminds us why Kerry wants to avoid discussing his actual record - he can tell us over and over again the things he plans to do, but we have only to look to his past to know how he will actually behave.

And we look to W's record to see what he will do. I certainly don't agree with everything he has done (e.g. spending on ridiculous domestic programs) but he is unquestionably the best man for the job at this time.
