Set up for failure

I have been watching the inauguration proceedings and the events following President Obama being sworn in as the 44th President of the United States. The media circus leading up to his swearing and the following parties and events have been ludicrous. The media is treating President Obama as if he is the Second Coming of Jesus.

He is being set up for failure by the media and his supporters. He is being portrayed as the savior of the economy and the U.S. world image. All the talk of change and yet the majority of the people in his cabinet are old school D.C. people, many of whom are from President Clinton's administration.

Change, huh? Not too likely.
