Putting Hopeandchange into perspective

Great column by Melanie Phillips about dangerous Obamania in the UK's Daily Mail. An excerpt:

I think that the desperate dangerousness and complexity of our world and a profound terror of what properly facing up to its problems would entail have led people to believe a cartoon version of why we’re in such a state - and to have invested their hopes similarly in a fantasy figure of hope, to such an extent that they have shut their ears to some very loud warning bells ringing from his past history.
