Yeah, it was like a short four year change of pace in the lunacy. Maybe you could be generous and say he perhaps he was running the presidency for the times that he would have ideally suited to it - 15 - 20 years ago and when he could have reliably expected 8 years at it.
I still can't help but blame the voters. The French seem to manage this every time they have a presidency election, it's always some right wing loon vs someone no-one really wants but the entire country manages to come out and hold their nose to make the vote. The Dems didn't help themselves, the choice wasn't good, but there's no excuse for failure to vote.
