We did not hire him to be an arbitrator of popularity. He needs to learn the "Buck Stops Here" part of the Presidency. There are those elected who think the interaction with their constituency stops there. Those that govern *well* keep listening. Bush thought he knew best and kept on the straight and narrow, no matter what data came in subsequentely. Obama has the presence of mind to keep listening and adjusting the solution to best fit the problem and future. Nope, Obama is like Clinton. Go the way the wind blows. Bad in a CEO. You can listen to the constituents, but you better make decisions on the facts. Clinton had the charisma and votes to be a great POTUS. He failed the test. |

Looks to me like he's the opposite of Clinton. Please show me where his decisions have been based on poll numbers or is there something else? -- Nom=de=Plume |
