The win is great but this adminstration has a HUGE, HUGE mess to clean up, and probably 2 years or less to get something done so as to build support or else potentially lose congressional majority. Given the scope of the clusterfuck, it seems unlikely that Obama’s administration will be able to fix the mess. I’m cautiously optmimistic that we made one step forward but its only after so many steps back, and the concern that the future direction will be more steps back after the high expectations are let down. Anyway at least we proved we can do one thing.
You know, Tad, your job here isn’t “done” just because the election is over. I’m looking for some more thoughtful blog posts here….C’mon man don’t let me down!!
