And the winner is; George Bush!

A short time after the presidential election on a long forgotten post on Thoughts on Freedom, one of our commentators stated, “History will be much kinder to Bush than the present.”

It seems that George has been fortunate enough to be in the happy position where the person replacing him has turned out to be far worse than anybody could have imagined Bush himself ever to be. It is said that a day in politics is a long time, but it now seems that Mr. Hopeanchange has performed so badly that voters are getting nostalgic for a guy who left office with some of the lowest approval ratings ever.

In a recent poll 43% say that Barack Obama has been a better president than George W. Bush, while 48% say Bush was a better president than Obama has been.

Looking back, it is difficult to understand why the Democrats failed to understand just what the Massachusetts Senate result indicated. They were inclined to blame it on their candidate when in fact the drovers dog would normally win that seat if it had a D on its collar. Going into denial doesn”t win elections.
