It's NEVER Obama's fault

"[T]he Clinton legacy makes it impossible for Obama to act on [gays in the military] swiftly".

Why?

And, Andrew Sullivan still hasn't addressed Obama's silence on Prop. 8. Or, Biden's endorsement of it. I guess that will be blamed on Jimmy Carter.

Because Obama has few announced core beliefs, and announced many of them with a wink and a nod for public consumption, few of the ardent pressure groups that supported him will be happy in two years. Sooner or later, they'll have to stop making excuses.

By the way, can everyone agree that the man elected in 2008 cannot blame his mistakes on someone who left office in January, 2001?
