Since I learned anything about Obama, my fear was that he was going to turn into Bill Clinton.  I think Bill is a true liberal at heart but decided in order to win he had to make concessions to the right.  Too many concessions to the right.

I believe that Obama will be the same way.  In my fondest hopes I wish that even while Obama makes concessions, he keeps the prize in sight and that prize is not his own political gain (or at least not ONLY that).  I can deal with concessions that move us forward.

Clinton made concessions that kept us in the same place or laid the groundwork for the backtracking and abuse of the W. admin.
