Thanks for opining, Pat Lucci. This board desperately needs your daily input. C’mon, old friend, get out of your CEO office from time to time and bless us with your wit and witticisms!

Sergio sends his best, btw.

Obama is the best thing that could have happened to Limbaugh and Severino. Both are one trick pony blow hards who if McCain got elected would have nothing to blather about.

Or CYA because he (or they) hasn’t formally been asked yet..

Okay, so my guy won and my punditry has been fairly accurate lately, but I won’t be gloating because now comes the hard part…making the country better. Let’s see what happens. (Try not to bury him before the inauguration.)

One question though: as I suggested last week, NH will end up being high single digit-low double digit for Obama. Shaheen won fairly easily (easier than I thought). Yesterday Brian still thought NH would be close and it clearly wasn’t. Why? Is it Bush backlash that will swing back soon? Did Obama help Shaheen or visa-versa? I’m curious what the perspective is from the NH denizens. Were you surprised with yesterday’s results?

1) He’s already backpedaling on many of his empty promises. Didn’t you hear his speech?

2) He’s Deval Patrick’s clone and Deval’s arrogance did him in during his first few weeks in office. Obama is 100 times more full of himself than Deval ever was.

Conservatives are happy today because it’s already clear how this will play out. Be careful what you wish for, sometimes you get it!

How can you say disaster when he hasn’t even been in the Oval Office yet? Anyway, we know for a fact one disaster is leaving come January.

It’s probably nothing more than posturing. Obama will ‘insist’ and these folks will eventually ‘begrudgingly’ accept, but not after telling the people ‘back home’ that “I really, really wanted to stay, but this Obama guy…he was persuasive. I tried the best I could. Sorry.”
