QOTD: "There is a budding enthusiasm in flyover America these days.

Its foundation is a growing belief that America's economic might will soon be rekindled by a businessman-president. The initial macroeconomic signs are promising. Consumer confidence is up. And a Trump-inspired Wall Street rally has the Dow at record heights.

The construction of the Trump Cabinet has been another breath of fresh air. This group is heavy on relevant experience, private sector success, and conservative values. It is also quite wealthy. Accordingly, mainstream media coverage has been generally hostile. No surprise there. Its agenda of high taxes, high regulation, high pre-emption, high political correctness, and getting high (marijuana legalization) is now on ice. These disconsolate pundits understand their time in the wilderness has arrived.

Yet, President Obama's final days have served to remind those of us who have been walking around with a smile for the last two months that he remains the contemptuous ultra-left progressive we have so adamantly opposed over the past eight years." --Robert Ehrlich
