Pretty much sums it up, though I’d add that it’s hard to be disappointed when you know what you’re getting. Obama’s rhetoric was always sweeping but rarely progressive. He’s guaranteed a certain amount of continuation of Bush’s policies by retaining either members of the past administration or like-minded folks like Larry Summers and Geithner. Sure, we all hoped he was just talking that ‘centrist’ crap to get elected and that once he was in office he’d behave as a progressive and actually bring us real, genuine change. But he was being flown to those campaign speeches in ADM’s corporate jet. So who else was on board, do you think?
