Prognosticating the Obama Administration at National Journal

I recently participated in a National Journal left- and right-leaning national bloggers poll at the National Journal [1], answering such questions as:

* How much will Obama change the way that Washington works?
* Do you think that partisan divisions in Washington will decrease, increase, or stay about the same next year?
* Who will be a bigger thorn in Obama’s side next year?
* Which would be the smarter course for Obama in moving his legislative agenda in 2009?
* Will Republicans in Congress find it in their political self-interest next year to accentuate their differences with Obama or to downplay those differences?
* Which poses the greater risk for Obama in his first year as president?…and more
