    Obama's Hits and Misses - The Complete Tally

    Posted:
    01/21/09
    Every day, we're going to look at the stories that made the headlines in the mainstream media or the blogs, and evaluate whether they represent an advancement for Obama's administration or a setback.

    We are not judging whether these stories represent advancements or setbacks for the country, only for what we understand Obama's goals to be.

    By no means are we claiming this to be an objective list, and it probably won't be anything close to complete. The goal is to get a top-view sense of whether the news has been basically good for the Obama administration, or bad.

    I will be reading the comments regularly. If there is an overwhelming feeling that we missed a major story, it will be added. Similarly, if we interpret a given story as an "advance," when the overwhelming feeling is that it should be a "setback," I will reconsider my evaluation.
