I've seen enough bad reputations posthumously whitewashed and enough political honeymoons turn into an unsuccessful marriage to not trust solicited media soundbites. I'm cynical that way.
Like I said I'm vaguely positive about the hire (he said all the right things, and/or none of the wrong things, at his presser, and he has sufficiant executive experience). But I'm not gonna call it good (or bad) until he demonstates that himself.
