Subject: RE: BS: Innocents abroad?
As I said before, Alex, the man was elected governor of Texas Twice. He was only the second Republican Governor since reconstruction.He must know something about making decisions; Texas is a largely Democratic state.
As a businessman-even if he wasn't a very good one- Bush knows all about being the guy at the top. You know, where the buck stops.
Al Gore has never in his life been the top dog. He has always had a group with whom to make decisions and the credit or blame was SHARED.
In business or in the Governors mansion, the top dog makes the call. If it's right, he's a hero(maybe) and if it's wrong, he is left swinging in the wind.
Bush has been there. Gore has not.
I don't see where Bush has proven that he can't handle things. From where I sit, it seems that he has more experience at running things than Gore.
