What’s with Obama’s choice of old-time Clinton cronies and recycled Washington insiders to run the transition to his new politics of change?
Can’t the anti-Washington insiders President-elect find anyone who isn’t a Beltway has-been?
Judging by the appointments to his transition committee and leaks about possible top staff and Cabinet choices, Obama appears to be practicing the politics of status quo, not the politics of change.
That's what Obama detractors want...someone that will screw it up and not be a hardass. Rahm don't take no crap, especially from the GOP, and that scares them.
Hmmm I thought Obama was going to reach across the isle! Hahaha not!
They voted to go from the frying pan to the fire. It's the same old politicians with a new puppet in front. Same old same old. No change!
In a way, I agree, because politics is generally just politics as usual. Each segment wanting to get their side supported (lobbyist, corporations, regions of the country, political parties, etc...). I don't personally expect who is President to affect my life significantly, or at least I hope it doesn't. My own hard work determines how my life will be.
