Thus so much relies on Obama making it clear, as soon as possible, that he intends to govern differently from how he ran his campaign, and that he will be a president capable of making harsh choices, not a president who relies on rhetorical flights of fancy to keep trouble at bay. He has already made a start, choosing a cabinet that can’t be considered anything but ecumenical and talented, the cabinet of a man who intends a presidency of real greatness. And if he doesn’t manage to defuse anger born of hurt, born of the disillusionment of the hopes he raised, he will have none but himself to blame.
But at least I won’t be bored any more.
