1. He's not a patch on Julius Caesar or Genghis Khan.
Their campaigns were amazingly successful.

3. The political winds under pressure of failure, demanded change...from bad news to good news
Obama came about at the right time....he was the first to use Positive and Wit to do battle...

Npw that he is elected....he must think of paths to success....for that I am quite sure he has a sense of paths to chose from....

5. Americans like optimism and a "can do" attitude. They have served us well.

7. And now he is uniting the Democratic Party, and the Independents
and is creating a massive civil war in the Republican Party by being nice to some of them.

8. Really? Holder and Richardson were integral in his campaign...

Holder was on the VP vetting team with Caroline Kennedy

We all know how Richardson endorsed Obama


In addition to that, Emanuel was an early Obama supporter.



And... if u want to get technical..... Hillary played a STRONG roll in helping Obama win the election.



All of those "Clinton Loyalists" played a very strong and important role in OBAMA'S campaign.



Your OP is garbage.
