I've read and heard some people say that the bar has been raised unreasonably high for Obama, that people may be expecting too much. Folks might expect too much, but I think the bar has never been lower than where Bush has left it - on the ground. No matter how badly Obama does, he couldn't possibly screw up our nation as badly as Bushco did over the last 8 years. If Obama tries even a little bit, I figure the US will be way ahead, and if he's really successful beyond my wildest expectations, his administration may even undo all the damage caused by Bushco.
