Remove naysayers and let change speed up

The Obama administration has been proactive on everything from preventing a meltdown of our financial system to saving our auto industry from virtual collapse, to providing a blueprint and the incentives for developing new industries for the 21st century, to recognizing that the day is not far off when employers will no longer be interested in providing pensions and health care.

The list goes on and proves this administration's worth. Change not occurring quickly enough? It's true that we need to get back on the track of creating good jobs and paying down the national debt.

Clearly, the answer is to remove the naysayers and outright obstructionists from government. Now is not the time to abandon the Obama administration, proactive Democratic incumbents and forward-looking Democratic challengers.
