Ronald Brownstein reviews Barack Obama's appointments so far:
The most intriguing trend in Barack Obama's early appointments is the absence of a conventional political design....If there is a diagram to Obama's choices, it's idiosyncratic and personal. Obama doesn't seem to be responding to anyone's vision of what his inner circle should look like except his own. And that may provide a much larger clue to his thinking as he nears the presidency. These first decisions could be read as a declaration of independence. They suggest that Obama feels unusual latitude to set his course without overly deferring to his party's traditional power centers, or even to the expectations of those who helped elect him.

This was a genuinely extremely great post. In theory I’d like to write like this also - getting time and actual effort to make a excellent piece of writing… but what can I say… I procrastinate alot and by no means seem to obtain something done. backpack
