Sour grapes....nah.

Am I saddened by the exit of W? Sure I am. But no sour grapes.

It's more like relief to sit back and see what Obama can do with a congress with an 8% approval rating. So far it's just been a bunch of executive orders.

Or in other words...circumventing the system. But we saw that during the campaign. So no surprise there.

It seems that he's almost afraid to go up against Pelosi. He shouldn't be. She's just a short, shrill, little woman from California.

So sour grapes? nope....none here. I'm grown up enough to say that Obama is my president,too, which is more than some of you guys were willing to say whenever W. was in office. I hope he does well and can bring the change that is needed in this country.

But what I really want to know is this......When will he develop the cahonas needed to lead the country and not shrivel under the pressure that Pelosi assumes that she has? (Not much with an 8% approval rating. She's just the one that's holding the gavel in the bully pulpit at the moment.)

That's what will be interesting and fun to watch.
