All Barack Obama's speech did the other night is certify that George W Bush remains the most gracious, dignified ex-president in modern history! When he ran against Al Gore and then John Kerry, Bush focused strictly on policy. I challenge anybody to find me a clip where George Bush ever even mentioned his political opponents by name. Right or wrong Bush defended his policies so well America chose to reelect him to a second term. Too bad Barack Obama didn't take a page from George W Bush's playbook.
