"You might prefer McCain and I Obama or Clinton but 4 years down the road there won't be a spits worth of difference in what happens."

You may be right in your theory when it comes to McCain and Obama/Clinton, Spaw, but we've just had it demonstrated that it ain't necessarily true. Had the Democratic nominee won against the Republican one in 2000 or even in 2004 we would be in a different spot. Not only would there have been fewer deaths of people who will never reach their prime but we would not have the tens of thousands suffering for the rest of their lives.

And that's only the tip of the proverbial iceberg.
