Well... he's hired all of Clinton's people, so in terms of experience, if you liked what Clinton did, you'll like what Obama will do. I know he voted as liberal as can be in the Senate (when he actually voted) and back in Illinois, but for now I'm going to be optimistic and say that he only voted liberal because his constituents were liberal and more than anything else, we wanted to get elected. Now that he's President, he'll want to get re-elected, and I think he'll go with whatever seems popular in order to do that. So, it's our job to tell him that what was popular in Chicago isn't popular in the rest of the country.
As for the media, why is it that you NEVER see a picture of him smoking, even though it's well known that he's a smoker?
