The World Is Waiting For You Obama


Hold your excitement for few more hours. Two superpower of the world will be indulged into transition just after few hours. George W. Bush will hand over the power to Barak Obama.

The economy will spring back to life, the troops are on the way home from Iraq, health care coverage for all promised and many more exciting and new things will happen with Barak Obama becoming the powerful man on the planet.

"People are going to give Obama more time than they would any other new president because they know he is dealing with unprecedented challenges," said Mark McKinnon, a consultant who worked for a time for Senator John McCain, Obama's Republican opponent in the presidential election. "The economic crisis President-elect Obama faces may in some ways help him — it is taking some of the helium out of what would otherwise be stratospheric expectations."

A Times/CBS News Poll, conducted last week, offered at least some guidance for the Obama Expectations Clock. Most respondents said they thought it would take Obama two years or more to deliver on campaign promises to improve the economy, expand health care coverage and end the war in Iraq. One of the more intriguing questions as the nation approaches this transfer of power is this: At what point, if ever, does Bush lose ownership of this recession and it becomes an Obama recession? Most respondents think the recession will last two years or longer.
