Confidence and Competence

I'm really impressed with the number of really smart and knowledgeable economic scholars and writers who have expressed confidence in Barack Obama's ability to tackle the economic and other crises.

There was also talk by the Sunday morning pundits about him bringing together the best and the brightest people to work on his team. They suggested that the need to reward political supporters or the need to be overly racially sensitive may take a back seat as well. This is so refreshing after 8 years of cronyism, corruption and imcompetence.

Obama's emphasis on working for all of America and not being overly influenced by special interest groups is encouraging as well.
