Yet it comes back every day.
I've thought the same about every president over the last 20 years. Don't know if it's because politics seem so much more like entertainment and it's all a "show", or if I've gotten wiser, or if I'm just jaded. Maybe a combination. I think the only candidate who is hard core straight up and would likely act almost solely for what he considers the "good of the country" is Ron Paul. Unfortunately for him, most voters don't agree with his level of fundamentalism and don't think he would be good for the country, so he's not got a chance in hell. All JMO...
