Yes, we can.

I wasn't aware we were electing Barney Frank.


I'm sorry, but many of the reasons you cite strike me as reaching. I can't help but think you simply don't like the man, and are striving for justification. If you don't like him, fine- I don't know that I could vote for someone I disliked intensely. So many of the things you are worried about are really decided by Congress and the Senate- Obama would have very little control over such things.
