He is far left (which I have no problem with) but you would be hard pressed to find two individuals farther to the right on the NeoCon agenda than the two individuals Bush picked to be his Vice President and first Secretary of Defense. Neither administration's decisions should be shocking. Every administration is bound to consist of a mixture of the elements that make up the party that won the election.
In my opinion, the Obama administration should be faulted for picking way too many moderate/conservative advisors. I mean....Ray LaHood? In the cabinet? That decision still baffles me. Hillary Clinton, meanwhile, is about as liberal as Richard Nixon.
So, if there happens to be a few actual leftists in there too.....good.
