I voted a little better. I probably should have voted "as well as expected", but I have to give him bonus points for last week's address to the joint session of Congress. Since the economic package has been discussed to death (not just here, but in the media, in daily life, etc.), I just want to mention how pleased I am that my President has closed Guantanamo, addressed the need for early childhood education, and affirmed that the United States will not torture. I'm glad these issues haven't gotten completely overshadowed by our troubled times.
