Barack Obama - My thoughts so far

I know he hasn't even begun his presidency yet, but I have to say I am impressed with a few things...which is really hard for me to type being that I am pretty adamently opposed to him in general.

First off, I am extremely impressed how quickly he has taken to filling his cabinet. He seems to take the exact opposite stand that Clinton took, and is making this a serious priority (as it should be).

Secondly, I appreicate the fact that his cabinet is not completely made up of left wing extremist. As a whole, it is pretty cut and dry moderate...which makes me happy.

On the flip side, I can't help but feel that he (Obama) looks a bit like a scared teenager after realizing they just got pregnant. Sure, the ride to the top was fun, but now the daddy pants have to be put on. I do, however, take comfort in the aforementioned points. I just hope this new presidency doesn't take us into a realm that we have yet to venture, later to bite us in the @ss. Socialism isn't for me.
