To make an analogy...

Is it just me, or is President Bush tanking for the republican party? If you don't play WOW, think about it this way: The tank is the warrior that makes sure that all of the enemies are attacking him, and not his allies. This way, the remaining party members can focus on attacking (or doing whatever) without the hinderance of being directly attacked by monsters. Or protesters.

And who knows what will happen when he leaves office. I guess that's where the analogy sorta breaks down (for now) - but I can imagine it would be something to the effect of:

- Hearthing out (leaving whoever's left/comes next to deal with it all)
- Running out of the instance with all the aggro (buying his allies time to escape)
- Some combination of the above?

I think the more realistic option is that he's a bad 2-hand tank. Sure, he's been sufficiently holding threat this whole time (and he's been doing a lot of damage) but when the shit really hits the fan his healer won't be able to keep him up and he's gonna go splat.

LOL.

Although, a terrible 2 handed warrior is only scarier if you know that he's SUPPOSED to be really bad, and barely holding aggro. We'll see who gets splattered when the shit hits the fan. I plan on wearing goggles for that particular event...
