Default Patrick Kennedy on Obama White House

http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/...se_637051.html

I don't know if this is necessarily any worse than previous administration. It may be. It may not be. I don't know. But I thought this was supposed to be the administration of "change". This sounds like typical "business as usual" in Washington where special interests have the power.

It's alot better than during the Clinton years.

I think what the Obama presidency, dealing with both his congresses, (and the 2010 midterms) has shown is how entrenched and unable to be changed Washington actually is.

Although Obama has less big special interest PAC money, and more small money donors, than Romney or McCain. Romney is virtually all and only special interests (big donors). He even speaks more frankly to them (see the last 48 hours of news cycle)
