I was not wildly enthusiastic about Obama (or any other major candidate,). but I am really wowed by what I have seen of him so far. He is not so interested in "positions" as in figuring out "what works" for the greater good.

My impression is his administration is listening to the concerns of those involved and appreciating them as valid. I think he sees his task to be to balance and weigh the needs of individuals and the needs of the larger system, and try to come to a synthesis of what is most effective over-all. A hard task, and not one that is "position" oriented.
