But my "resume" is pretty much the same as yours. I'm happy with his selections, mostly because I'd rather see an administration filled with those who can get shit done, rather than those who think like me. Ability trumps ideology. Come see me when his Cabinet is actually full before you start complaining, and maybe I'll be more apt to agree.
