On the threshold of Bush Vs. Kerry Debate for the presidential election in the United States, the following distinctions between Winner vs. Loser could be fun to characterize. Enjoy:

The Winner is always part of the answer; The Loser is always part of the problem.

The Winner is always has a program; The Loser always has an excuse.

The Winner says, "Let me do it for you"; The Loser says - "That is not my job."

The Winner sees an answer for every problem; The Loser sees a problem for every answer.

The Winner says, "It may be difficult but it is possible"; The Loser says "It may be possible but it is too difficult."

When a Winner makes a mistake, he says," I was wrong"; When a Loser makes a mistake, he says," It wasn't my fault."

A Winner makes commitments; A Loser makes promises.

Winners have dreams; Loser have schemes.

Winners say, "I must do something"; Losers say, "Something must be done."

Winners see the gain; Losers see the pain.

Winners see possibilities; Losers see problems.

Winners believe in win/win; Losers believe for them to win someone has to lose.

Winners see the potential; Losers see the past.

Winners are like a thermostat; Losers are like thermometers.

Winners choose what they say; Losers say what they choose.

Winners use hard arguments but soft words; Losers use soft arguments but hard words.

Winners stand firm on values but compromise on petty things; Losers stand firm on petty things but compromise on values.

Winners follow the philosophy of empathy: "Don't do to others what you would, not want them to do to you"; Losers follow the philosophy, "Do it to others before they do it to you."

Winners make it happen; Losers let it happen.
