Running Against the Past

I am not the only person to notice this, but it seems that both major parties have found parity in campaigning against the past. The Democrats are running against Bush while the Republicans are running against Clinton (past and future). Well, some Republicans are running against Bush while some Dems are running against Clinton.

What I am wondering is, when are the major candidates going to stop fighting a past they cannot change, and start fighting a political war based on the future of this country? And for those who do want to fight for a future, when are they going to start going beyond platitudes and put real substance into their fights?

This weeks featured candidates who do just that:
Mike Huckabee
Dennis Kucinich
