Obama is walking into a s.hitstorm. Besides all of the stuff you mention he has the economy to deal with as well. Let's see what happens, because, like it or not he's your president for the next 4 years. Where is all of the outrage about what a horrendous President Bush was? He gets a pass from a lot of people here, while Obama hasn't even been sworn in yet and already some are sure he's going to be a failure.

Walking into a sh.itstorm is surely not ideal though it gives him a lot of excuses to change what he has proposed and gives him the "out" i'm sure we will hear alot, Bush's fault. I dont agree with alot of what his stances on issues, I think (so much of what is proposed by people running for office and so many of the platforms that are run on are bs to get elected) but I hope he works out.
Where is the outrage against Bush? You are kidding right? No president has ever been as savagely attacked as Bush has.
I think Obama is going to fail for a few reasons. Number one is that 46% of the country doesnt agree with his policies enough to vote for a party that has failed in many respects. It wont take that much to turn that 46% into 51%. Number 2 is that many of his policies are simply not feasible. Number three if Sharpton, Farrakahn, Boxer, Streisand, Franken, Schmuer, Frank (Barney not Lawerence), Trial lawyers, unions, Oprah, Rather, Ted Kennedy, etc are happy then people like me should not be because they are polar opposites on virtually every issue to business owners and people like me.
