1. I am glad he's finding advisors who are open to new solutions

and new ways of doing things--it goes right along with Obama's image of freshness and a new start. Thanks for this!

3. Obama gets criticized on policy
But I think he's reeling it out just about right, given the prolonged pre-primary season.

4. Hmm...
Let's see, three low-level Clinton Administration veterans. I don't see much of a "break with the status quo" here. Nor would I necessarily expect one. But the article headline sucks.

7. So who is your candidate?
You might as well make it clear, you've been negative all over the Obama threads.

10. It's Kucinich, and I haven't at all!
I've said I consider Obama a good man, I've applauded his readiness to correct himself as an example to all the others, and while I've said I don't like his Iran comments I've also said I think he's open to facts and will develop through the campaign. He's actually one of my preferences.

I wasn't attacking Obama here - like I said, i wouldn't expect a major economic break at this point - I was actually objecting to bloomberg.com's headline as garbage. Because it was.
