This is a normal post To get to the position where he has
he's had to fuck a lot of people over, a lot.

He's a career politician, regardless of how ethical he may seem it's undeniable he has a nasty streak.

We'll see...

This is a normal post I read his book and he seems like a nice bloke
But I know by the end of 4/8 years I'm going to wind up disliking him.

This is a normal post I can't remember who said it
... but someone once commented it takes a very particular type of individual to want to rule a country. Ego is the least of it. Fair enough.
I'm just extremely happy a bloke who is (or at least comes across as being) genuine, intelligent, eloquent and actually a little bit cool is the president of the US in a week or so, and that the correct side of his country is appropriately afraid of him.
I'm just unbelievably happy crazy Palin isn't choosing the wallpaper.

This is a normal post I'm reading a book on Vietnam
And a former aide to one of LBJ's Chiefs Of Staff comments that LBJ was completely unable to accept any form of criticism whatsoever - he took everything to heart. Struck me as a peculiar character trait for a man who would eventually become President.

Career politics is a very funny thing. Look at Clay Davis, Nerese Campbell and Tommy Carcetti in The Wire for a good fictional (but very realistic) look at how the importance the Career takes over the importance of Public Service...
