Is bitcoin a partisan issue: you Americans make it all about politics :-). I am in an European country and bitcoin is apolitical and no party cares.
Biggest risk to widespread adoption: it needs to be super easy to use and secure. Bitcoin is a complex technology and the aspiration can't be for every one to understand it. Almost nobody understand FIAT yet everyone uses it. Also, there is a need for a layer 3 service that provides the same safety net that a bank provides today, in terms of sending value to the wrong address, or being able to roll back a transaction if required. It is terrifying to send bitcoin knowing that if you make a mistake it is all gone for good.
