In my opinion, it was scurrilous to suggest that Dan "Potatoe" Quayle's qualities as a candidate stood in any degree against Barack Obama's. Quayle was a lousy statesman, illiterate and bumbling, and showed no sign of managerial competence, and had no particular accomplishments of merit.

He was, in all those respects, the opposite of Barack Obama.

And Rig, your refusal to acknowledge the skill that campaign took, blaming it on bankroll, is showing you up for some kinda fool. Clinton ran her campaign into a $20M hole without pulling it off. Barack Obama's funding was a LONG way from bankrolling, and your memory lapses are really shameful for one so young. His orgnaizational talents AND his fundraising talents put the veteran Clintons to shame. How d'ya like THAT experience?
