Some of the measurements where not of what he is pushing for but what he is likely to get? For example - "Regarding cap-and-trade, the best he can get through Congress is"

He had earlier proposed massive reductions. Maybe a "real radical" wouldn't settle so easily if thwarted but still what someone can get passed isn't a good measurement.

His level of spending increases are pretty radical, but by that measurement Bush was pretty radical too (although neither was as radical as FDR)
