Obama's first 100 days


It is nearly Obama's 100th day in office, and many supporters still feel the same as when the did during the campaign: confident.  He not only represents a new administration and a shift in governing philosophy, but he also embodies the ideals of a fresh leadership strategy. 

There will be mistakes and failures, and we have yet to see how the always-on Mr. Cool will react. He can get angry in private, they say; however, one reporter claims he has never seen anything other than an occasional glint of icy dismay at a logistical matters handled badly.  

Regardless of what happens, our President remains on a global stage with the hottest lights and the biggest audience.  That stage now is fully digitized, cabled, YouTubed, Huffpo’d, and Twittered. He never leaves it, or seems to want to. At the same time, Obama doesn’t seem bothered that he’s on that stage to begin with.  

If there is another Obama behind the curtain, we will eventually see it--for the play is never ending and he is the only man on the stage.
