He's a fan of free wine tastings, too many tv shows to name, and eating out. David makes his living developing web applications used internally by his employer.

During the time after a new president is chosen but before he or she is sworn in, the sitting president is considered a lame duck. This is a time when a president can act according to his true principles since he never needs to pander to the voters again.
If Bush loses the election, what will his lame duck period be like? When Bush Sr. was a lama duck he sent troops to Somalia to stop the genocide there. When Clinton was a lame duck he declared large swaths of the the American heartland to protected and tried to shore up environmental regulations. What will Bush Jr. do? I get scared thinking about it.
