Obama's Hits and Misses - The Complete Tally

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.

Our New Approach to Comments

In an effort to encourage the same level of civil dialogue among Politics Daily’s readers that we expect of our writers – a “civilogue,” to use the term coined by PD’s Jeffrey Weiss – we are requiring commenters to use their AOL or AIM screen names to submit a comment, and we are reading all comments before publishing them. Personal attacks (on writers, other readers, Nancy Pelosi, George W. Bush, or anyone at all) and comments that are not productive additions to the conversation will not be published, period, to make room for a discussion among those with ideas to kick around. Please read our Help and Feedback section for more info.
