Doubtful he will have to do any cartwheels to get them to go along....at least not at first.

It's so hysterically funny that all the O'haters are whining about Obama's picks for his cabinet so far ... Ohhhhhhhh noooooooooooooo, they're all Washington insiders! Oh fizzle sticks, it's a bunch of Chicago thugs ...
Hey folks ... what I love is that his picks, regardles of whether or not they are DC insiders or chicago thugs ... THEY ARE SMART! I could care less if they've been in DC or Chicago for the past 50 years, if they are smart ... WELCOME ABOARD!! Enough of these stupid oil soaked Texans, enough of these even more stupid Regent Law School and Heritage fund boneheads .... bring on the intellectuals! That, "my friends", is change enough for me.

BushBoy's time is over. Let's stick to the thread at hand, shall we? And stay on task.
I LOVE IT ... all the people who are telling us to not bring Wonderboy into the equation are the same sillyheads who have been blaming Clinton for everything for the past 8 years.
So know what ... I'LL BLAME WONDERBOY, I'LL MOCK WONDERBOY because the first 1-2 years of the Obama presidency is going to be mopping up the poo that was left by the Cheney administration.

Isn't WonderBoy your guy? How did it get turned around onto Bushie??

You're the one who claimed that Obama will "impact the nation" more than any other President, simply because he's "being given carte blanche to do as he pleases," while you claimed that Bush had no such authority because he had to have the approval of Congress.
I was simply pointing out your error in stating such.
You were obviously forgetting that Bush had a Republican majority in Congress until 2006. Obama will not have any more discretionary power due to a Democratic majority in Congress than Bush had during the first 6 years of his Presidency with a Republican majority.
How dare that half breed select people with experience
There's a difference between leadership experience/ vision and having Beltway dirt caked all over someone. ie Hillary
If Obama loses popularity, expect Clinton to run against him in the primaries in 2012. She definitely has her eyes on the Oval Office... Having Hillary lurking about an Executive branch stuffed with former Clinton cabinet members effectively makes Obama a figure head for the White House.
I don't get why this bogus deflection is the kneejerk defense to the criticism...
How do you figure that the only choices out there for him are Career Thug-o-tician Clintonistas or Green inexperienced no names??
Get real... If he was smart he would keep Condi.. Her Russian expertise would certainly come in handy over the next 4 years...
You mean Condi "The Smoking Gun will be a Mushroom Cloud"?
That's the Condi you mean?
Did you already forget all of the lies she told in the lead up to the Iraq war???
Did you forget how Condi completely ignored White House terrorist-expert Richard A. Clarke's continuous ongoing requests between January 2001 - August 2001 to get the Bush Administration Seniors to meet on Al Qaeda?
