Easy to compare 8 years to 4 years when the 8 years for Bush are over, and we actually see how much money he spent.
Because at the rate Obama and the Democrats are going, without cuts they'll make Bush look like a child when it comes to spending money.

I actually think that part of the reason that the Republicans can only get whackos and unqualified candidates out to run against Obama though is that there are no easy solutions. Its great to say "Obama has spent too much and mishandled things"...but what exactly should've taken place?
Other than saying the government is too far in debt the Republicans can't really point to anything that they would do differently that would make an enormous difference. Sure, they would change healthcare...how exactly?
In reality the one solution is obvious: raise taxes and cut spending. That solution gets you approximately zero votes though, on either side of the aisle.
