...that the reason that neither candidate had very precise plans on what to do about the current financial mess, is that neither one of them has a clue?

I'm not even sure that's a criticism. If I were made king tomorrow, I wouldn't have any better ideas than Obama or McCain seem to have either.

Hmmm, seeing as though nobody has any ideas, maybe Sarah Palin wouldn't be too bad as President. She couldn't be any worse than anyone else seems to be. And she'd be a lot more entertaining. Think of the soundbite possibilities we'd get every night on the news.

Where's Richard J. Daley when we really need him?
