I echo your hopes. My mother is devastated that Obama won the election. I have repeatedly told her that the candidate and the president are two different people and I am witholding judgement until I see President Obama in action. I am hoping for the best and braced for the worst. We'll see what happens.
As to Bush's administration, for some strange reason (sarcasm fully intended) Marc Anthony's speech from Julius Ceasar keeps running through my head. "The evil men do lives after them, the good is oft interred with their bones." I've thought of doing a post listing all the positive things Bush and his administration accomplished but I don't think I'm braced for the fallout that would bring. Also, it seems rather pointless. It would change no one's mind as anything positive would be found to be a fault or declared a lie.
