Nov 25, 2008 - 1:51 am 2. jon:Ive got to give Obama the benefit of the doubt because he’s the new guy. But! all that talk about change was just that. Obama has surrounded himself with the Clinton administration. What we have now is another Jimmy Carter with the Clintonistas pulling the strings. Tell me im wrong.
Nov 25, 2008 - 5:05 am 3. anton:You know it jon, the worst of both worlds.
Nov 25, 2008 - 7:07 am 4. Will Sharpe:Give me a break, he hasn’t even stepped into office and you’ve already lumped his first four weeks with the four years of Jimmy Carter; how about you quit soothsaying, Jon, and comment once we have a better sense of how events are unfolding…

Nov 25, 2008 - 7:39 am 6. Bill Perron:The left is upset, so what is the big deal about the left being upset ? The left has no idea of what it is to not be upset and complaining about something, it gives meaning to their lives. Rejoice that our fellow Americans have found one of their own to be upset about. The upset left will expose and do the work of setting up it’s own downfall. Rejoice in the left being upset.

You are wrong.
“Ive got to give Obama the benefit of the doubt because he’s the new guy. But! all that talk about change was just that. Obama has surrounded himself with the Clinton administration. What we have now is another Jimmy Carter with the Clintonistas pulling the strings. Tell me im wrong.”
Yes, you’re definitely wrong.
Nov 25, 2008 - 8:38 am 9. anton:radical_moderate, in what way is he wrong, if it talks like a Clintonista, thinks like a Clintonista and walks like one too, it probably is one. The same people, the same plan, but a different result? Unlikely.

Unlike conservative nuts, Obama is a pragmatist and will adapt to the times. The difference between him and the Clintons is that he is pulling the strings. (I doubt you could understand the difference since you play the role of the puppet)
