Quick Thoughts on Obama’s Speech

1) Compared to his 2004 speech, this has got to be a bit of a downer. And that wasn’t great shakes. I think the two Clinton speeches were better (Melvin made a great point - Bill’s was so good, you wanted to believe the crap he was spewing), and as a policy matter, the Montana guy was loads better.

2) I’d love to see anyone in the media try and figure out how he actually plans to achieve even a quarter of what he talked about tonight.

3) How can you spend 10 minutes on the economy without talking about international competition and expect to be taken seriously?

4) He sure likes shoveling counterfactual crap these days, eh?

I dunno. If I don’t get it by now, I never will.

I’ll cross my fingers for Eric Cantor tomorrow, I guess.
