What "change" will we get?

Well, the country has spoken, and Mary Warren of Wheaton seems to believe that President Bush was a jokester and Barack Obama is a serious guy and problem solver. Well, I might believe Mary had she written a single problem that Obama has solved in his past life as a state senator or U.S. Senator. You see Mary, if you want credit to your editorials, you need to put some facts in it ... you did not mention a problem Obama found a solution to. Since Obama voted over 180 times "present," meaning a lack of commitment to the possible solution before him, that cannot show him as a problem solver. Since he never had executive experience of any kind, that cannot show him as a problem solver. Hmm, I am optimistic, for the sake of our country, that Mary is correct. Unfortunately, Obama's past does give credit to some pessimism. Let's hope we can hold on to our "change" in our pockets now that the country has voted for: Change.
