Okay, remind me again why we don't like Rob/Bob Ruben? Treasury secretary under B Clinton, right? I thought Clinton did the economy right & we are just trying to get back to where we once belonged (as it were).

But my main point is that apparently Nobody paid attention to what an extremely moderate corporate-friendly democrat Obama is. They all just piled on to the change-wagon & now are surprised that he doesn't have the policies of Kucinich. Don't get me wrong. Obama is change & better all around than McBush, but he's not about to single-handedly usher in a utopian era of progressive economics. Maybe if he gets enough down-ticket progressive dems to push him that direction, but not on his own.
