With regard to your last question -- in a word, no. I expected him to take a more systematic approach to the issues and I think he is scattered right now. And I expected him to reach out to the Republicans more than he has. I'm not letting the Repubs off the hook entirely, but I've been disappointed that Obama hasn't done more. I'm not sure I think that his priorities are right.

What do I dislike about John McCain? First of all, I thought he was too old to run for President. I thought he took a lot of cheap shots during the campaign at Obama's ideas, without ever putting out alternative ideas about what HE would do. I dislike his short temper, I dislike his endless riding the fact that he was a POW as if that gives him special insight into foreign affairs. I don't agree with his approach to foreign policy. And I think if he was going to do anything great in Washington, he would have done it by now. I think he is disingenuous. He lives in Sedona (millionaires), he is married to a wealthy woman, he dumped his first wife for her. He kowtowed to Bush, then distanced himself from Bush when it was politically inconvenient.

If the GOP had run a viable candidate, I might have voted Republican.
