54. Has nothing to do with "one disagreement"
I don't buy into his act.

Never have.

All I can do is look at his advisers, his rhetoric vs. his actions, his corporate contributors, etc. and make my own judgment.

In answer to your question - no, I don't think he "gets it." He is behaving just like those who put him in power expect him to, and I truly feel for those who expect anything less than Bill Clinton Revisited. That's what you're gonna get, and I'm not willing to invest in another political charade again.

Check his comments on Iran, check his comments on Israel/AIPAC, check his rationale for opting out of public financing (since we can pretty much surmise his whole "I really want public financing" was theater at it's finest and he had NO intention of ever following through), check his FISA vote.

You're looking at centrism with a knack for turning a phrase.

I need a hell of a lot more than that.
