So, Barack Obama is coming to Georgia in March.

It is going to be interesting to see what kind of welcome he gets. One side, he has been pretty good for Georgia (and of course, in my humble opinion, the nation). The stimulus bill provided millions for broadband access across north Georgia, which could help bring in more industry and improve education for the rural poor (A move, that by the way, got Sonny Perdue and Joe Biden on the same stage). Of course, today, Obama announced the first loan guarantees for new nuclear reactors in the US since the 70′s to be built where else, but in Georgia. All in all, I’d say those are two things which would normally ingratiate Georgians to the President.
