Funny comment as in an email I got from Phil just today he wanted me to be the Al Gore to his Sarah Palin.

IMO Our Dear Leader is just another Ivy League empty suit educated to the point of indecision and sense of self-entitlement. In which case I tend to prefer someone that will decisively dig in and get s**t done as opposed someone that tends to gently flap in a breeze of indecision while Iran spins up their centrifuges.

But he won the popularity contest so he gets the fancy office.
