"President-elect Barack Obama's resounding election triumph was greeted Wednesday from nearly every quarter in Washington as a mandate for change. What was most striking after a resounding victory that also added at least five Democrats to the Senate and 23 to the House, was how gingerly Democratic leaders treated their new mandate.It is 'not a mandate for any political party or any ideology,' said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., 'but a mandate to get over those things that divide us and focus on getting things done.'"

Don't think as small as Obama's 6% - think as BIG as Reagan's 10% - and turn that fisheye lens on:
