Now THIS makes me chuckle.  With all the help Obama got from the Super Liberal organizations in America, I felt convinced that he would have some debt to pay back.  However, he is already irritating them by not appointing extreme liberals to his cabinet.  Some of the affected supporters are already griping about how he's going to be another Bush, and I think that he is just showing that he will be a more independent decision maker.

By NOT appointing the neo-liberals that I was dreading, he is basically saying that he can lead ANYONE to his decisions.  Whether or not he is right, who knows.  But cabinet officials serve at the pleasure of the president and CAN be replaced at will.  Just ask Dubya.  If they don't play to his points, I'm sure he will find replacements.  I think it's brilliant.  This way, he can take his center-right cabinet and make most of the country pliable, and direct them to his message of change, and make most of the country pliable.  In addition, all the change will be credited to Obama personally, not his ability to pick liberal appointments and ride on the magic carpet of hateful anti-american left wing groups.

I'm starting to like this guy more and more.  Don't get me wrong, on election day I was all about third party because next round I want a REAL election.  But if he can keep from getting shot, I think he'll do just fine.
