Change? Not So Much

I had to look again at old Obama signs a promotional items. I was pretty sure they had a letter C on them somewhere. Competence? Clinton? Change? Oh yes, it was Change.

Change meant changing the faces to people named Clinton or those that worked for a Clinton.
Change meant changing from incompetent government officials to competent ones.
Change did NOT mean bring somebody in that wasn't part of the Clinton administration.
Change did NOT mean to have anything to do with Joe Lieberman.

At the time of this writing, we have Emanuel, Holder, Clinton, Podesta and Lieberman having important spots somewhere in the upper end of the Democratic power scope. If it were up to me, I probably wouldn't punish Lieberman right now either. I'd wait until it's out of the spotlight for a while.

I am a bit conflicted so far. Yes, you need experience and competency but now the hope that I need to believe in is that President Elect Obama hires someone that didn't work for the Clintons. He's one hundred percent for the past administration at this point and he needs to get someone in a position that didn't work for the Clintons. At least symbolically? Please?
