I wasn't a fan of W, but he pretty much stuck to his positions, even if misguided. Clinton held his finger to the wind, but even he didn't change as much as Obama from his campaign positions (of course, he did his best to leave himself a lot of wiggle room on everything he did, and didn't promise as much as Obama). And Clinton was by nature a very dishonest guy, too. Bush the Elder famously changed on taxes, but mainly because he was backed into a corner by a Democratic Congress. Reagan stuck to his conservative guns, Carter to his liberal ones. They all ran into trouble for various things, but few said one thing and then did the exact opposite with the regularity that Obama does.John Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08729625146043379286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5794535954827182754.post-67337020265633648562009-09-05T21:03:37.598-04:002009-09-05T21:03:37.598-04:00If you change the names of people and/or events in...If you change the names of people and/or events in this post, don't you think it might apply to anyone who ever ran for anything in politics?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
