I would as well if I was American (I'm Canadian though, so got our own unique brand of problems here)
Just god, I wish more Americans had the brains to realize that if the Dems lose, there won't be free elections anymore. Instead, so many will go, "He doesn't inspire" and not vote and could end up allowing democracy in the states to die and the world to choke
I feel being willing to admit there is a severe problem is a bit more important than remaining consistent. Now if he goes back to saying, "So long as I did my best, then no regrets"...
