SETTING THE TONE
From Obama headquarters in Chicago:
On Monday, President-elect Barack Obama and Senator John McCain will meet in Chicago at transition headquarters. It's well known that they share an important belief that Americans want and deserve a more effective and efficient government, and will discuss ways to work together to make that a reality. They will be joined in the meeting by Senator Lindsey Graham and Congressman Rahm Emanuel.
There is so much "press" swirling around who and what and where and how that it is nice to have well formed nuggets of news occurring. Nuggets that are true and actually from our President.
I think that it is all swill.
He will do what he has to do when he has to do it the way it has to be done and where it needs to happen. That is the way he ran his campaign and that is the way he will govern.
All the speculation is just that. It is not even interesting to read.
And while we are at it, as much as I dislike Joe Lieberman, I understand the point that he should not be excluded. This is an administration of INclusion and if they start punishing those who are rogues they lose their first and most important credibility.
I would like to see Joe burn a bit but not at the hands of his party or his President.
I think that the voters in Connecticut will do that handily unless he gets his ass back on the bus.
