Well we'll see in November, I guess. People wanted a change in 2004, too, and they still voted for Bush who won by one of the largest public vote margins (not electoral votes) in history.

By just saying "people want change" and will vote blindly to get it, you insult their intelligence. Even in 2006 the big swing towards the Democrats had more to due with centrist Dems running than the leftists winning a mandate. The voting public will want to know what kind of change they will be electing, and once that it revealed, Obama is in trouble if he doesn't move more towards the center.
