More old people from a retro-administration? Where’s the change? Where’s the young fresh new ideas? On the bright side, Obama's obviously in favor of recycling.

Some will argue that it's better to fill these positions with people who are tested rather than untested. Untested? That's what Obama is and we're supposed to trust him. Wouldn't "change" from old-school Washington politics require some untested people to be put in charge?
The change we were promised isn't just change from Bush. It's supposed to be change from old-school Washington politics. Change from Bush was inevitable. Whoever won was change from Bush. The change Obama promised was away from all the old Washington politics. Obama promised us more than just change from Bush.
It looks like Obama may have found that politics is a dirtier game than he thought. It seems he's traded a lot away to the Clintons to get her to back off and let him win. Now we get a "retro" adminstration. Our change is from Bush and back to Clinton.
