When I point out to my conservative friends that in terms of federal spending and exploding deficits, Reagan’s limited government rhetoric didn”€™t always match reality, they are offended that I would dare question the Republican messiah. Likewise, conservatives can take solace in the fact that the right-wing nightmares and left-wing dreams induced by the new Democratic messiah won”€™t amount to much either. As of this writing, Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers haven”€™t been considered for any cabinet positions, but former Clinton officials John Podesta, Carol Browner and William Daley have. In fact, there isn”€™t much to indicate that the second black president will govern much different from the first.
