RB, as much as I'd like you to be right, I don't think you are. Please, tell me one negative thing, one admission that maybe things won't be great if he's elected, one point that's not about "hope".
The guy is campaigning on hope. It fuels the engine of his campaign. It's great. I've already admitted to being on the bandwagon. But if anyone is full of sunshine and rainbows, it's him. It's the big draw of his campaign, that if he's elected, things WILL be better. He's not telling us hard truths, but we don't want him to. No presidential candidate is going to stand up and tell us that oil may be permanently expensive, that programs can't be fixed, that taxes are going to go up. They'd never get elected.
