The Damage Control Presidency

So the 2008 Presidential Race is all about damage control. It's like that one mid80s Marvel Comic called "Damage Control" , where the people in the comic were tasked with cleaning up New York City after a superhero whupped the muthafuckin' ass of a super villain.

I was remarking that Benazir Bhutto became head of state in a gender repressive country, and it's tripped out because the US -- the bastion of freedom and democracy -- is having trouble electing a female head of state. And even if Hilary Clinton wins the White House, her presidency will be effectively dealing with the skunkshit that she's going to be inheriting. And if she can't really make heads of the mess, do you think the GOP will allow another female President? Unless it's Anne Coulter!
