    right, I've had difficulty keeping up with this a little over here, so do you mind if an interested outsider asks a question?

    forgive me if this sounds a bit devil's advocate (its what I'm doing I suppose and from a fairly ignorant position ;) ), but could someone please break down into say 4 or 5 broad policy points what Obama is actually going to do to change America into this renewed land of hope which he has you all fired up for?

    His rhetoric and public speaking is very good, but I keep hearing the same phrases over and over and I don't know if it is purely because he is very 'soundbyte-able' or because his message is pretty shallow.

    I wonder if you will end up comfortably sitting on your porches staring into the middle distance imagining hopefully the change around the corner, and always the next corner

    Help me understand if you will, please, and forgive my tone as someone who grew up his whole life waiting to kick the thatcherite tories out of parliament, only to end up with our current lot.
