Its because politicians know they can't fix most problems in 2-4 years time. If they make the right, tough, unpopular decisions it will be 5-10,20 years before the problem is fixed. They rather slap a band aide on it, make it look pretty on the surface, get re-elected and make it the next guy's problem. Who just repeats the process. We need someone with balls to get up and do the right thing and we need people with intelligence to back him.
