Jennifer,
Sometimes we get ahead of the game. You are very wise and see what we in all liklihood will see from President Obama: indecision, deconstruction, and procrastination. His past would indicate this.
However, I don’t see where a little over one week from his election Obama is obligated to make the decisions you expect him to have made. Sure, he needs to get a team in place so that the transition can move smoothly in January, but it’s not even December yet. Indeed, we’re not quite halfway through November yet!
There are and will be many legitimate reasons to critize the new administration. I expect to do this quite strenuously over the next four years, since I am a conservative Lutheran. There are just so many fundamentals I don’t share with Obama that I can’t imagine much that our new leadership will do over the next term that will please me. The issues will be objective, fundamental, and important.
I look forward to reading insightful discussion of those real issues as they arise. Speculation on the pace of his appointments 10 days after his election is neither insightful nor important.
