That _could_ be the case, but in this real case, it isn't. The differences
between their policies are miniscule.

I think that your use of who is a fortuitous typo. I'm pretty sure you meant
how. The reality is that if either of the average-intelligence, lying, frat
boys, with mostly the same political agenda have to decide things and react,
they'll do it in ways that I consider much the same in value. First, they are
most likely to retreat to their handlers so that someone with a clue can make a
policy decision. And if not, then Gore is likely to freeze and do nothing
(bad), and Bush -- as more of a cowboy -- is likely to shoot wildly from the
hip, almost certainly missing (which is potentially worse, but more amusing).
Should I assume, Scott, that you'd prefer Gore be the US president? I think
that's the complete opinion that the US media is giving about the rest of the
'western' world. (Presumably because he wears the badge of the socialist, even
if it's just a ruse..?)
