According to Don Boudreaux, I probably have more change in my pocket than either major-party candidate would actually be able to bring to government. He argues that people’s fears and/or hope of “change” are ultimately irrational, and predicts that neither candidate will ultimately effect much of it.
I agree with him. Any “change” that results from this election will be minor and incremental, and there is unlikely to be much change from a Republicrat administration anyway. Even the GOP rallying cry of judicial appointments is something of a non-argument, as two full terms of an Obama presidency would be unlikely to shift the balance of the Supreme Court. The most likely Justices to be replaced are all from the liberal wing of the court, Stevens and Ginsburg.
