Team of Rivals… Really ?
Obama en mai dernier avait déjà en tête la formation d’un gouvernement d’opposants :
I will tell you, though, that my goal is to have the best possible government, and that means me winning. And so, I am very practical minded. I’m a practical-minded guy. And, you know, one of my heroes is Abraham Lincoln.[...] a wonderful book written by Doris Kearns Goodwin called ‘Team of Rivals,’ in which [she] talked about [how] Lincoln basically pulled in all the people who had been running against him into his Cabinet because whatever, you know, personal feelings there were, the issue was, ‘How can we get this country through this time of crisis?’
Aujourd’hui, Team of Rivals de Doris Kearns Goodwin est le livre dont tout le monde parle depuis qu’on a appris qu’Obama le relisait. Mais le président-élu a-t-il vraiment l’intention de former une Team of Rivals, pas si sûr.

For McCain, politics is always operatic, pitting people who agree with him against those who are « corrupt» or « betray the public’s trust,» two categories that seem to be exhaustive — there are no other people.
