I hope Obama's presidency will be a great success -- even though he faces some of the most difficult circumstances of our time.
If we agree on that, then we agree on the most important thing. The rest is interesting but ultimately secondary. We need this man to succeed in office because we need our country's leadership to succeed!
And personally, if after 8 successful years, HRC ran and won, I'd be even happier. It is my personal hope that she can find a role either ... inside or outside the Obama administration ... where we can all benefit from her talent and energy.
I also agree that he has made the most of the Obambi image ... though again I think this is fabulous. Low expectations is a huge advantage in any poker game and I want a commander-in-chief, not a saint-in-chief. And I totally agree about the media-created drama.
Cheers!
