It's looking like Obama was wrong, and the lower spending crowd was right.... (although the US government will never admit it).
What is his appeal for you?

am i a bit disappointed with him? maybe
but for me and most people outside the US it couldn't get any worse than Bush, so Obama is a relief.
and it's actually very sad to watch how it is not about politics and compromising in the US anymore but only about making his life as difficult as possible.
and does anyone really think that McCain/Palin would have done any better? Considering at what point the new president had to take over?
Hell, even the slightest thought of Palin being in charge in case McCain dropping dead makes me want to crawl under my bed.
