Maybe you're a centrist like I am, Bucco. I've said before that I am a fiscal conservative, maybe even to the far right fiscally. But I also lean left on social issues--like getting healthcare coverage for all Americans. And I'm on the right side of the middle on foreign affairs issues, although definitely not a military hawk.

While I won't vote for President Obama's re-election--he's an incumbent, remember?--I do think there's a lot of good things that have happened as the result of his administration. So if you read in some compliments, that's because they're there.

I do not care for his performance on fiscal issues. He had the opportunity to speak to fiscal issues and act on them and didn't. Other issues were obviously higher on his priority list. That more than overbalances the good things he's done in ny mind. Besides--like I said--he's an incumbent.
