Obama has it easy
his winning formula was to package a bunch of plans, memorize them like any good lawyer can, and then run with what the media gave him.
Republicans made his job easy by having no coherent message, and will never have the media support them. 90% of the dominant media vote Democratic, so they will subconsciously support the Dems. The Republicans can only hope to neutralize the media through a man or woman of charisma. Not McCain. But Obama merely needs to exit Iraq and Afghanistan, go easy on his social agenda and he will be guaranteed a favorable, if not undeserved legacy. If he gets greedy, he could undo himself. But he's cunning so he's already priming people to delay expectations. Then he'll do something like Clinton passing laws to invite Subprime Lending disaster, which will only be realized years later and will be blamed on somebody else. Brilliant, but a malignant strategy. Republicans play along by spending. They need to learn the lesson of not spending no matter what. That was Bush's undoing plus a stupid war.
