Of course. What baffles me is why in hell anyone would want the job of President at a time like this. A war on two fronts, joblessness, house foreclosures, a useless congress, bank failures. And no matter how well the new Pres does the opposition will blame him for the problem not his/her success if some are solved. A real lose, lose deal IMO. Not one of my favorite Presidents but Nixon did get the US out of Vietnam and is generally blamed for Americas loss of the war even though he didn't have much to do with getting us in the mess to begin with.
