Obama Will Learn From His Mistakes.

If Acknowledging That Racial Misgivings And Misunderstandings Are Still A Part Of Politics And Life In America, I Plead Guilty.

The Fact That Obama Is Getting Criticism From The Left And The Right Might Reflect His Understanding Of The Underlying Political Dynamics.

One Of Obama's Most Impressive Attributes Is His Quiet Confidence: Voters Sense That He Is Comfortable In His Own Skin, A Dedicated Father And Friend Who Won't Waste Time With The Phony Rituals Of Washington.

Every Now And Then, A Presidential Candidate Surprises Us With A Truly Human And Honest Moment.

Obama Is Capable - As Evidenced By His First-term Success With Health Care Reform. But Mandate-building Requires Humility, A Trait Not Easily Associated With Him.
