    "Obama is unproven..."

    Be careful what you wish for -- Mr. Obama has zero record of meaningful accomplishment we can reference, other than the Nov 4 milestone in his "personal journey". Frankly, no one has a clue what we're getting in the way of the next leader.

    Well, let's see.

    Credible cabinet appointments. We're seeing that, already. Like someone's actually thinking through the composition of the administrative body with something besides the campaign donor list at the desk.

    Geepers, what's next? Real resumes and qualifications? (However will we get used to the change?)
