No one, absolutely no one, gets where he is today by being an out and out enemy of the powers that be. I think he promised them they wouldn't lose a ton of money because of his presidency.

But he did tell them they would pay more in taxes, didn't he? It is a compromising position he's had to play, but he did it damn well. So, for now, I will give Obama a great measure of trust.

Really, it's the American people as a whole that just Tuesday, regained a semblance of gaining our trust. They have a ways to go and I think Obama will help them see their way to becoming more trustworthy. If anyone thinks he won't/can't, you gotta be blind.
