Conservative vs. Liberal Solutions

During the Presidential campaign, President Obama presented his solutions to the problems of our country and the world through the perspective of a liberal (also known as progressive), which is generally associated with the Democratic Party. John McCain presented his solutions from the viewpoint of a conservative, which is generally associated with the Republican Party. What's the difference between these viewpoints on addressing social and economic problems of the U.S. and world?
