Yes I think the nation generally feels he has some good advisors around him. I also would like to see him rise to the occasion. There was commentary last night on television that he knows he is not a good communicator but he will have to become one. Traditionally the public will rally around their leader at such times with great support, but only for a short time. The support fades, lasting at most only a fewm onths. They commented he will need to use this blip of high support to his advantage. He is going to have to learn to communicate. Saying he would not talk to reporters today in NY for instance, was a bad move. He needs to be doing what Clinton did--tears to his eyes, hugging people, being there with us. I like Guiliani and dislike pataki but I loved the way both of them handled New York--right there in it with us. They even changed out of their suits to show they were one of us. They showed their emotion. Anwyay...its starting to sink in now in a different way.
