From point of view of programming language/compiler theory, Go is of course quite far from any dynamically typed VM-based language. But from point of view of where it would be a good fit in practice, majority of large Python/Ruby projects, like those that are driving millions of websites right now, will greatly benefit from being rewritten in Go, without sacrificing anything important. That can not be said about C++ world — hardly anyone who chooses specifically C or C++ for a new project, over everything that is currently available, would consider Go an option.
