Justin,

What a difference we will see from the past administration. He's very quick with his answers, speaks intelligently, without super liberal biases; just the opposite of what his opponents claimed he would be. That he said the economy will get worse is not too remarkable as it's pretty obvious to most observers. What I found most remarkable was that he appreciates consensus, enjoys, even requires, differing opinions. What he said about listening to the Governors suggestions about how to get a stimulus package working most effectively, without the politics as usual, pork barrel B.S., was what I was most impressed with. What a far cry from what we've had to deal with during the past few years. Listening to him reason his way through the interview must give one the hope that the results will be much better to live with. Cheers to those who saw through the Right Wing knock down, drag out politics of the past. Maybe we can turn the page. Ya know, the more I here from him the more I’m positive about the future.
