As Amos, Bobert and I, among others, have been saying, it's just slightly premature to condemn the Obama admininistration as being "no change" before he even takes office.

Actually I think Obama should have picked Lugar as Secretary of State. Now that would have been real change--really reaching across the aisle--and splitting the Republicans even more than they are now. But something tells me that that change would have been not what the complainers here are looking for.

It's like I said on another thread. Some folks on Mudcat are not happy unless they can whine about something.   Maybe it's essential so they can sleep.

But the rest of us, who actually are pretty happy with the way things turned out politically, can sleep just fine.

And I suspect we have lower blood pressure than the whiners too.
