His choice of Emanuel as CoS is an indication that there will be little tolerance for "professional time wasters."<BR/>And no, I doubt that MR. Obama will suffer from paralysis by analysis. He is probably the most intellectual president we've had in decades combined with being quite capable of making decisions. What more could you ask for?<BR/>He's an opportunist for sure, but also one who wants to be the best president ever and who understands the broader ramifications of failure. <BR/>He is a man who understands the challenge and will not fail.<BR/><BR/>Good blog Brown Man.

His objectivity and pragmatism has been noted before. My guess is that not only is he able to dispense with emotion, but also able to focus on a problem with laser like logic, which I think will be a problem for many Americans who are used to the often misguided passion of its leaders. The whole cowboy, maverick schtick.He seems to understand that every step he makes has to be a calculated chess move, thus I don’t think any of his appointments are going to be particularly radical or surprising.<BR/><BR/><I>I suspect Barack Obama will use the power of digital communications in a way that would make Ronald Reagan envious.</I><BR/><BR/>As I recall, Newsweek, Businessweek, et al have been salivating over Axelrod’s mastery and Obama collusion with technology as one of the lynchpins that galvanized netizens but also hit on and energized the youth vote. It did appear that good old fashion Grassroots campaigning and the personal touch with canvassing did more to reach minorities and whites within the confines of their communities, then the Republicans could conceive because they assumed who their voting blocs were. The Obama campaigned didn’t make those assumptions and thus was able to acquire new/first time voters.<BR/><BR/>Of interest is the transition website they have also generated, further utilizing the power of net dissemination strategy as a pathway of information as well as providing a certain level of transparency. It appears interactive and also allows people to leave their opinions and ideas. Kinda cool.<BR/><BR/>http://change.gov/<BR/>http://change.gov/newsroom/blog/Dark Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01051316480970381291noreply@blogger.com
