How Was Tonight's Obamarama?
I was at a birthday party and missed it. Was it he in high oratory offensive mode, or finger-wagging defensive mode, or something else?

Thanks!

1. Why not check it out on you tube or something and make up your own mind?

3. Probably no mode to your liking.
In other words, he did pretty damned well.

7. Bullcrap.
I was a supporter from the beginning badly, badly want him to succeed - and he might still be able to if he pulls himself together and do what he did as a candidate.

6. He was prepared. He elevated the questions he was asked with
informed and considered answers.

He was convincing.

The Pukes are betting against him on this. I think they're gonna git their weenies caught in the zipper.

11. After pundits wanting high entertainment, Dem Steve McMahon said exact tone needed at this point.
On Ed Show, after a bunch of all pundits wanting fire and brimstone, Steve said Obama can't be specific about legislation at this stage, too early. What he did well was explain, rebut the financial arguments of the other side, and gave cover for the Blue Dogs.

Remember the tide started turning over claim stimulus bad, ie Obama can't trusted on health care and the deficit.

Trying to be positive while listening to Fineman and Rachel, reminds me of Ebert discussing critics always basing comments on the movie they'd rather see, than what actually there and describing it.

14. He explained why we needed Health Care Reform, various pkgs. being debated
Edited on Thu Jul-23-09 07:59 AM by Peacetrain
How it effected the deficits, How it will bankrupt the country if we do not deal with it. A very good job.

I am sure you can watch it on U Tube.
