What's more scary is that Pat Robertson nearly got into power. We can't have people like far-right extremists getting into power. Well, not including Bush.

I share your horror with the prospect of Pat Robertson becoming the president, but I think it's overstating the situation to say that he "nearly" got into power. He really never had a chance.
I didn't vote for Bush and he's far from my favorite politician, but I really don't think he's a "far right extremist." Yes, he's out there, but he's really not in the same league as the Robertson/Falwell/Pat Buchanan types. W is more like Reagan, and we survived that guy, even though he bankrupted the country.
