01:52 am: If..
Like a no-hitter, we're not supposed to talk about it. But if Obama wins, what would we expect to get out of it?  Here's my hopes for 2012:
  • Less than 2000 American troops in Iraq
  • Some sane national health plan
  • National debt, as a proportion of GDP, no worse than 2008 despite the vicious 2008-2010 recession
  • Guantanamo "terrorist" prison closed
That's not much, is it?






Current Mood: pessimistic

Justice Stevens safely retired and replaced with someone no more conservative than he is.

I seem to recall that Obama has said his three big goals are: 1) withdraw from Iraq; 2) reform health care; 3) new energy policy.

I think closing Guantanamo is a no-brainer. Your hope on the budget deficit, however, may be more of a problem, at least until the recession is over. Raising taxes will help.
