55. More on that point.
I sometimes see people who voted for Obama but supported someone else in the primary deliver a lot of "I told you so" about the fact that he didn't turn out to be the savior we thought he would be. The problem is that the critics never understood that Obama wasn't offering to be a savior. They don't understand that those of us who "got" Obama aren't disappointed because we knew all along that it was going to be more difficult than waiting for him to do it for us. Those critics are disappointed because they were the ones looking for a savior who will never come.
