I happen to know that job one on day one of Obama's second term is to focus on jobs, jobs, jobs. He's planning to call in the finest minds--Warren Buffett, Immelt of GE and he's going to hold a seance involving Steve Jobs and they're going to "focus like a laser" on jobs and how to create them at a jobs summit!
