Is Kerry really better than Bush?

I've been reading about both canidates a little not as much as i would want to. I've been wondering if either candidate is better than the other. Is there a way we can tell what the future will be with either candidate as future president. I read somewhere else on ATS that it doesnt matter who is president in 05 that we are going to invade Iran or Saudia Arabia. They both dont seem to attaract my attention i just wish that democrats had run a better candidate but unfortunatly in my opinion it seems that the democrats have been hit with a dry spell.

Dry spell is right.

It's a shame the media crucified Howard Dean....

It is. Finally, a man with common-sense policies came close to a major party nomination, and the press neutralized him over that scream.

Damn shame.
