You should not seem surprised. Obama has run a ruthless and opportunistic campaign. He has made McCain look like a naive fool. The whole issue of public financing is a primary indicator. He is overwhelming naive gentleman John with money at his level and riding a wave leftist corruption to the office of president.

It will be interesting to see by June of next year when we learn how many promises were complete lies. Look for spending and taxes to flush out the truth. One or the other have to go. The spending promises are huge. The limited tax increase IMO is simple political rhetoric to fool the gullible electorate


Agree. The first test of Obama, I suspect, will be more from his allies than his enemies. When the Daley machine elects one of its own President, surely they will demand good places at the feast, yes? Yet nothing will sour the DC Dem establishment (and their water-carriers in the MSM) faster than being elbowed out of what they regard as their just desserts after the wilderness of the Bush years. Very tricky situation. Is Obama up to handling it? An interesting question concerning a man who has never before put together an administration.
