Bush did not have a mandate. And I'm just suggesting Obama not water his down too far.
I believe Obama knows what he wants done and will go about getting it done wisely. He certainly could legitimately ignore Conservatives, both based upon the election results and as payback. And he won't.
However, it should be remembered who elected him and why. It's not Hillary's mandate. And McCain's agenda was repudiated.
I'm just commenting on those folks who are suggesting that Obama cripple his administration by making his administration so diverse as to be ineffectual.
