"Change". It just doesn't buy as much as it used to.

Is Obama recreating the Clinton era?

FTA: 

All in all, 31 of the 47 transition or staff posts that Mr Obama has filled so far have gone to people with ties to the Clinton administration, Politico has reported.

Eleven of the 12 members of his Transition Advisory Board are Clinton veterans.

I guess it is what anyone does when they are surprised to find themselves dealing with something they can't handle...you surround yourself with people who claim to have the experience you lack. 

So much for all those campaign slogans promising change.  Why bring back the old Clinton advisory team?  To paraphrase a recent democrat slogan...eight is enough...more than enough of the failed Clinton policies.
