Not one.

But then again, no president has faced the 'perfect storm' situation the next 
president will inherit.

Yes, it would be political suicide to talk about it.  Likewise it would be 
political suicide to do it.  So it won't get done until there is a public hue 
and cry, and as you have correctly pointed out, that won't happen until the 
pain 
is much worse than it is now.

Given these realities, where's the leadership?  How does it make any 
difference who's president this time?   </HTML>
