So where's all that change that Obama fellow was talking about during the campagain?
It was all BS. He has never been about change, he is a conventional liberal democrat picking Clinton retreads and inside the beltway career hack politicians. The only thing different about him is his skin color.
I think people are misconstruing Obama's whole "Change" message. I think he was talking about change from Bush and Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld/Ashcroft policies. Competence over cronyism, etc. Thus far, his appointees are competent. I may not agree with them on most issues, but they're competent. Except for Joe Biden, of course. I think he's incompetent. But I don't think he'll have much influence in the Administration. At least I hope not.
And I don't know if I'd refer to Clintonites as "liberal." In fact I'd rather see Clinton retreads than members of the more liberal wing of the Democratic Party.
He won the election, he can appoint whoever he wants.
