As I have said in the past, this next four years would be entertaining if it weren’t so sad and dangerous.
Based on the lack of pressure in life (the law school, the community organizer, the lame state representative who never got more than six interviews a year, even the “senator-in-a-suit” episode that got almost no attention...this guy has skipped out on what most of us would say are the pressure points in life. He has no pressure valve and I doubt he really could grasp what the job involves.
We will eventually note a “twitch” and very limited press access unless its totally staged. I don’t think he will make any major foreign public appearances after spring of 2010...because of the twitch.
He’ll make quarterly trips to Hawaii for two weeks at a whack....to rest. Whatever mental issues he had before...will simply be magnified and no amount of medication can carry a guy in a job like this. I think he signed up for something that he really can’t do. His life was a stage with a chance to leave each night before...now, he can’t leave the stage for four years...and maybe eight. I think he’s screwed up big-time.
