@HorrendousOne You do realize the Republican party in the 19th century is synonymous with the current Democratic party right?

"Abe Lincoln had a track record. Obama doesn't."
Yeah, a track record as a one term Representative of Illinois after being a lawyer who lost many elections. And as one who became very unpopular (often dubbed a tyrant. Hmmm, I wonder who else is accused of that today) in the midst of his first term but won by a lucky victory in his second term. And finally, Lincoln won the war and became a martyr for United States sovereignty that increased the size of government decades to come.

Lincoln was not perfect and neither is President Obama but each have great ability, charisma, and talent, the real question is how will President Obama use his in the coming years. And can ANYONE no matter how skilled steer this country out of the mess the last decade has left us in.

Lincoln's Daughter, the last in the Lincoln Out of Time trilogy of novels released through Portland State University's master in publishing program imprint Ooligan Press, follows a time-traveling Abraham Lincoln to 1955. Years later, a daughter he conceived on that journey strives to be reunited with him.
The Democratic National Committee and the Obama camp sure have been playing up this ASSOCIATON between Abe Lincoln and Barack Obama. Let's see now, Lincoln:
- Was a Republican
- Was allegedly honest (Honest Abe)
- "Saved" the Union from the secessionists
- Ended slavery as an institution
- Was from Illinois ("The Land of Lincoln")
- Was self-educated in rural America
- Is memorialized as one of "America's greatest presidents"
Of course, Abe Lincoln had a track record. Obama doesn't.

Great comment! It's ridiculous to even try to compare Obama to Lincoln.
