my guess is that forfeiting a campaign promise in light of learning more about the effects of moving too swiftly or unilaterally, is a show of intelligence. people who don't change, show me that they're not open to new information or feel like they already know it all. president is not dictator, he tries to rule by committee which isn't doing him any favors, because repubs block so much of his work. and they do it with a very upfront and outspoken agenda, starting with grover nordquist's pledge. how much sense does it make to sign a pledge from some guy upon entering elected office? you corner yourself from negotiations right off the bat.
the reason it seems to me, that min invoked mccain is that the complaint is how slow obama is traversing his list of promises, versus what would've gotten done if he didn't win. i agree with what he said and i have no way of knowing if it would've been right, but this is a discussion forum and for coversation's sake, based on just the links he posted, it makes sense. yes, you can't keep saying it's all bush's fault, unless it is. when we're put in a predicament like his administration put us in, you don't pop out in 3, 4 or maybe 8 years, with shiny new pearls but you chip away at it until it clears up. you need to tear shit up worse sometimes, to fix things. i think he is the best chance of keeping things on that path in november.
