A huge surprise, but not entirely without precedent (see, as other somewhat similar examples, West German Chancellor Willy Brandt in 1971 and Mikhail Gorbachev in 1990).

Perhaps this award will cause Mr. Obama to dig deeper and get him back on track in some areas where he has been unduly and poorly influenced.

It's a lot to live up to when the award is for the promise of what may come in the future.
