Unrealistic expectations
The NY Times is running a story about how the Obama camp is now backpedaling a bit on the unrealistic expectations of his supporters that developed over the course of his campaign. Seriously, are we surprised by this? Since his appointment as the Democratic nominee, everywhere you look everyone is raving about Obama like he is the messiah come down from on high to save the United States from evils of the Bush reign.
For the sake of all the hope and optimism in our country right now, I do hope that he is able to pull it all off because if not there are going to be a whole lot of disillusioned people. But then again, if it doesn't all work out he can always blame it on what he inherited from Bush.
