People seem to have forgotten that Obama's a politician.

Not a rock star. A politician. This means that he makes decisions that affect people's lives.

Several times today I've pored over DU and seen people begging other DUers to just get with the Obamaphobia, well, I can understand why, but that's not something that anyone who takes politics seriously can be expected to sustain indefinitely.

Winning is great fun, certainly, but I wonder if some of us are forgetting what it is that was actually won.

Do you guys want some kind of American Tony Blair?

I hope not.
