I did not expect Obama to come in and make everything sunshine and roses inside his first year. Or even that he wouldn't do things I might disagree with. Nor do I now think McCain would have the country in any better condition. The primary benefits you could have realistically expected from Obama becoming President were improved world opinion of the US (that happened), the teary-eyed joyful reaction of African Americans who lived through the civil rights era (it was beautiful and I would never regret giving them that) and, finally, keeping Sarah Palin out of the White House. Mission Accomplished banner on those three things.
Who watched President Carter's State of the Union address last night? If so, what did you think?

He's as bad as listening to Bush, but for different reasons.

I'm sick of him too, but worried about what Congressional Democrats might do.

LOL! I would like to see a bill proposing a 100-ft. tall statue of Dracula next to the IRS.

I watched it. It was a nice speech, but that hardly means anything. *NM*

I don't regret voting Obama. McCain would have alienated the US even more.

Well said. The world opinion is still grateful for all three points. *NM*

I tend to agree. I prefer a split as do many Americans I think which is why I keep warning everyone

Nope. I don't regret it at all even though I have no plans to vote for him again.

I couldn't watch either, despite the fact speeches seem to be all Obama does well.

I think the problem is that Obama doesn't really have a lot of his own plans.
