The week before the election there were articles in the various media the subject of which was Obama's "team" was....in anticipation of winning the election they were busy developing plans to manage expectations established during the campaign. The thrust of their strategy was to temper "how much and how fast" promises could "realistically" be accomplished. By it's very nature, the subject was not front page or national network worthy.

Secondly, each to his own beliefs....the reality of the Office of POTUS is setting in.

I am a victim of my background, training and experience....I acknowledge accomplishment....and for newbies (which includes Obama) a wait and see approach is prudent only because all that is available currently are the words.

I can only measure going forward based on the available information which has nothing to do with partisan politics and it sure as has nothing to do with Bush.
