I got over my pity party and am interested to see what will happen. Not excited - interested. But maybe in a few months I can be excited. I definitely don't want him to fail. And it's actually Pelosi and Reid that I fear more than Obama.
I think you and I are examples of the people who can be supportive of the administration without actually drinking the Kool-Aid. There are a lot of us out there.

So, yes, I am an Independent who voted for Obama, support Obama, have a wave of emotions over his win, and think this country is ready for something better. But I am still annoyed by his speech pattern and am still waiting for him to earn the praise that he is receiving. And if I read or hear one more person type or say "Obama is asking us to...." (you aren't the only one, AKA Monet ), I will...continue to do what I've been doing: HECKLE.
