Promises already out of the spotlight

Surprise! With 70 days to go before taking office, President-elect Barack Obama scratched his campaign promises from his Web site.

Is the economy worse than when he made all his promises?

I do give credit, however, to those of you who are Obama supporters. He does give a good scripted speech. On the other hand, all of us soon will have to learn to live under socialism, and we will not have the American capitalist system to bail us out. You in the 52 percent majority got your priorities wrong.
