The past or the future?

This is the dichotomy a Democrat friend of mine says will be the guiding question of this year’s presidential election. By which, I’m pretty sure, he meant the "old" John McCain versus the "young" Barack Hussein Obama. Or maybe he meant the boring white guy versus the up-and-coming mixed-race guy. I hope he didn’t mean Barry’s race-baiting preacher is who we have to look forward to leading the White House prayer breakfasts. And it certainly can’t be their politics that he has in mind. Barry, after all, whatever he says in his stump speech, is a tax-raising 1960s Great Society liberal with one of the most liberal voting records in the U.S. Senate–a certified rubber stamp for the Democrat party. You can’t get much older than that. Unless you want to go all the way back to the New Deal. You know, the New Deal, same as the Old Deal.
