Good post on this inane formulation by Ezra Klein

(http://www.prospect.org/csnc/blogs/ezraklein_archive?month=12&year=2008&base_name=president_of_all_america):

".. the whole "President of all America" descriptor is popular these days, but a bit vague for my tastes. You're president of all America when you win more than 270 votes in the electoral college. Not when people stop disagreeing with your agenda. There's a tendency to downplay the degree to which America is riven by legitimate disagreements over the path forward. Those who think the occasional moment of symbolic outreach to Rick Warren will overwhelm arguments over socialized health care, or taxes, or abortion, aren't paying respect to our essential commonalities so much as dismissing genuine arguments. Few in this country battle to see their policy preferences respected. They battle to see them enacted."

A new poll shows 82% of Americans approve of the Obama transition moves. It must be time for Greg Sargent to put out  another sarcastic post on the "Angry Left and Obama" and we can get the Obama chorus here to sing lustily in support of whatever Obama and his administration is doing. Nevermind that it is readying an escalation in Afghanistan or cuddling up to the bigotry of a demagogic bigot like Warren. Nevermind the DLC-tilt of his administration. And nevermind the actual Obama policy (already effected) of supporting the Paulson $700 billion giveaway (that Obama helped herd through congress. We all know  a poll like this shows Obama is making all the right moves; and poll numbers really don't ever change much. Whining on the left is tiresome and they have been doing it for eight solid years. Enough!
