Personally, I don't follow the politics as well as others and can't analyse "he did this" or "they did that."
I recall learning back in high school that in general, a lot of the problems AND successes are often due to the mistakes or work by previous administrations. Either in part or in whole, so the condemnation or praise a president gets for something is often not 100% warranted. I learned that it was in general, as opposed to the earlier debate of Democrat long-term vs Republican long-term.
I agree with the posters saying our economic situation has been a while coming and that the current administration isn't really to blame. If a sinking ship is already pretty far gone, changing captains is only going to do so much.
I think Obama is doing an alright job: not incredible but not horrible either.
However I was expecting, or at least hoping for, "more." Not from his election speeches (which really don't mean anything) but just from the fact that I thought W was just so bad that anything else would be a real improvement.
It's like hating your previous boss or professor. When you go to your next job or class you think "ah, fresh start this is going to be great." Just because the last guy was the devil doesn't mean the next guy is going to be the second coming, even though part of you thinks/hopes he will be. The universe isn't that balanced or fair.
