OK, that's kind of what I meant anyway, but with a small caveat. Executive decisions are such that their vectors are set in motion early, and the effects play out long into the future, like for example invading Iraq, or permitting deep water off shore oil drilling. So its pretty clear that unless the next two years are devoted to redoing everything he's done these past two years, then I think its safe to say that we know what the Obama presidency is going to be.

"deserve" might be loaded but it must be the most important question. Who deserves the presidency is why a lot of people, like myself, voted for Obama in the first place. I found it against my conscience to reward any politician who went with political expediency and supported the invasion in Iraq.
