Affixed to the backstop of the St. Anthony Little League Stadium in Utica, NY was a small and not terribly pretty sign that simply said: "It's not whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game."

Sure, we were scared stiff of nuclear war, the Russians, being able to keep up with our neighbors, and dad keeping his job during "factory layoffs". Ike was President and Speaker Sam Rayburn and Majority Leader Lyndon Johnson controlled Congress. One was a Republican, the others were Democrats. But that didn't seem to matter. They were our leaders and we believed them. They were not ideologues but somehow we got balanced budgets, enough money for social programs, the first Civil Rights Act in nearly 100 years, the desegregation of public schools, and a successful space program.

Make no mistake about it: President Barack Obama is not a wimp. This was a confident President talking like a man who has won his second majority vote and now intends it to be a mandate to achieve his vision of government.
