The other two? Sounds like ineffectual drift, and neither are capable of doing what's needed, starting with re-instituting a comprehensively progressive income tax like the US had with Eisenhower, use the proceeds to not only balance the budget(s) but also smooth the tranistion to universal single-payer socialized medicine, and begin to dismantle the war machine amerika will soon no longer be able to afford.

And you think McCain would be better at achieving these objectives than the Dems?  Are his policy stances not in the diametrically opposed direction? - less tax, more war, and certainly no socialist medicine!
