Description
"In the near-necrotic thrall of the 2008 presidential election, most of the discussion centered on the historical magnitude of the climate in which the election took place… The bulk of these questions helped to shape the state of expectant anxiety and intense anticipation experienced by many as the Obama presidential team prepared to take office. However, the reality on the ground proved to be much more dismal than the hopes and dreams unleashed by Obama’s scintillating anticipatory rhetoric."
