I am not a political person...I shy away from anything political, mostly because I don't want people to judge me based on my political beliefs. I don't consider myself to be a Republican nor a Democrat. I guess I'm a moderate or whatever, because I have certain stances that are considered to be 'purely' Republican but I also accept some things that are considered to be Democratic ways of thinking...so I guess that leaves me in the middle.
That being said...you're right. Obama hasn't really done anything yet. Oh, sure, he's talked about doing things...but has he? No, not really. Winning this for all his 'talk' kind of fuels the underlying feeling I have that he's more celebrity than statesman...sometimes it feels as though because he's not a Republican, people act as though he's the greatest thing ever....
Oh, I don't think it's cynical. It's rather realistic. And you know this moderate thing - the Ancient Greeks defined the golden rule that encouraged people to achieve a perfect balance - being moderate was a sure way to being happy and nobel - so I guess you're on a good path ;-)

I don't know...maybe I'm just being cynical.
