Today I read this:

Although Mr. Obama has not publicly identified which priorities will have to wait, advisers and allies have signaled that they may put off renegotiating the North American Free Trade Agreement, overhauling immigration laws, restricting carbon emissions, raising taxes on the wealthy and allowing gay men and lesbians to serve openly in the military.

Here is the article.  When it comes to health care, the prediction is that we get a "down payment" on future change but not yet the whole reform.

They did say if I voted for McCain we’d get four more years of Bush.

Or are the Obama supporters finally realizing that politicians promise stuff they never deliver? So, what you’re saying is that things are pretty much business as usual in Washington under Obama? Big surprise there. Oh yeah, and that “down payment” is going to cost over $1 trillion … imagine what the balance will cost us.

Every day I feel better and better about voting for the guy.
