and I've been waiting for him to show himself to be the kind of progressive we all had hoped for ever since.

Inspirational speeches are nice, but what we need are strong positions, followed by action.

Reworking the "bring-us-together" and "I'm-a-uniter, not a divider" themes of Richard Nixon and George W. Bush is not good enough, and hardly something new.

I'm still waiting for Senator Obama to deliver on what I have always hoped was buried somewhere in the fluff of his cotton-candy rhetoric. So far, he hasn't.
