> A lot of people that voted for Obama, including me, were very disappointed that Wheeler headed the FCC and voiced the anger of essentially a lobbyist taking the reins.

Those people did not do a very good job researching Wheeler. His two telecom lobbying positions (head of main cable trade group, and then later head of main wireless trade group) were far in the past (over 30 years for cable), and were at times when those industries were the disruptive outsiders taking on the big entrenched near-monopolies to provide an alternative for consumers. Working for those industries at the time was being pro-consumer.
