I've heard people talk about the job creation double-talk, even in the media. As for Obama succeeding, you have to define success. What is happening is the Dems throwing into the so-called stimulus package every goodie they've wanted for decades. I don't think that will help the economy. In fact, I think it will hurt the economy. It will certainly set us back decades. So, if success for Obama means turning us socialist, I hope he fails. My fervent hope is that he comes to his senses and makes a good faith effort to heal the economy rather than pander to his leftist buddies. That will only happen if he thinks it will get him a second term and a legacy. Thus far, he thinks he's already entitled to be chiseled on Mt. Rushmore, so I don't look for any near-term epiphanies.

I forgot to remark on your style points. F' em. There is no point in rolling over on drunken, meaningless, pandering spending. It's time to take a stand. The style points come with principled opposition and a concrete basis for dissent. Not kissy faced honeymoon stuff. We're in trouble. Time for adult behavior.
