Don't get me wrong. I would have picked Obama over McCain (who never once in his career voted AGAINST sending combat troops overseas) or Bush, but I am disappointed that he has not delivered on more of his promises. He had a lot of support when he started, and I think he has wasted much of it--much like Bush after 9/11--getting involved in petty squabbles over things that have little to do with him. For example, he is forever going on sports shows to make comments about how collegiate American football should be run, and last summer he wasted valuable time harassing a Boston cop who arrested a friend of his. Soon Congress will be republican and all that potential will be gone forever.
