Obama Admits Mistake
The first real mistake admitted by a president in almost a decade. Sure the mistake wasn’t large, essentially failing to vet Tom Daschle, and find that he has some unpaid taxes. But this is a major step forward in the office of President.
The reason people didn’t like Bush was that he was caught red handed in several mistakes, but failed to take responsibility for any of them. When it is obvious that you are the problem the best thing to do is admit your mistake.
Obama didn’t really have to take the blame here, but showed good moral character in doing so. When you know what the mistake was you can then work to fix it.
