re: #159 koedo

The metric I hold Obama up to is his own words and promises. Yes, he can encounter resistance but in the end ‘the buck stops with him’.

However, I do believe one year is a very short time on the national level.

I think it would be too short to judge any admin on, even if it hadn’t been this particular year when there were many severe problems to tackle all at once.
2008 was going to be a rough year for any admin to tackle.
