No I wouldn't like it, but if the first eight months are any measuring stick, Obama is the odds on favorite to accomplish this goal. Early indications are that he has either very little common sense or is completely naive (lacking worldly experience and understanding). Either way, the American people are the big losers here. He knows how to operate in the brass knuckles dirty politics of the Chicago machine, but so far has been unable to carry over that guile on the world stage. Maybe that only plays well where people vote three or four times each.
