Does Obama have a chance?

I like Obama. If any one concept can impart upon Obama, "Lincoln-esque" (hate the concept) qualities, it lies with the issue of his naivete and therefore the capability to not get drawn into the crapfilled diaper that is conventional politics where he will then just stay the course of his parties will, living out the rest of his days mundaning himself with only with the stifling nature of the erstwhile political scheme, where change is feared and stability is king.
Unfortunately it seems that some mistake stability for continuity. Lincoln proved that great change is needed in order to grow. To put it in these terms, the giant crap filled diaper, otherwise known as the current political state, needs to be changed and perhaps Obama is just the man for the task.

He has many good ideas (probably all impractical at first glance) but his drive and his belief in what he is doing (and the people's belief in him) may allow him to make changes that this nation sorely needs.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

You can blame that on the current administration's continual idiocy.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
