I feel a tad sorry for Barack Obama. Even he didn't have the Audacity to Hope he'd win the Peace Prize because he has sense enough to know he doesn't deserve it.

The Nobel Prize committee has actually accomplished what few others have been able to do, they've hurt his chances of succeeding as President. Talk about raising expectations.

As someone hilariously said on the Sunday Times Online, "Why didn't I win? I did nothing too!"

Let's face it, the NPP is now so politicized that it has become almost meaningless. It's sort of like being chosen employee of the month after a month on the job because the other employees think you're nice.

Meanwhile back in reality the President has started 20 things and has finished none of them, and in some cases that's good because they are loopy ideas. That being the case let's actually hope that he's a great underachiever.
