True. I'm not convinced Obama will be as different as many are proposing he will. But clearly some important political heavyweights do appear to think that, or at least feel very uneasy about the possibility, enough to express that unease. And that's the only real point of substance I'm making here.

Well this pretty much deserves a thread of its own, and yup, I completely agree - argument of fairness and entitlement be damned, unfortunately.
