The Awakening continues

Jim Geraghty via Larwyn provides detail:

I can hardly believe what I'm watching on MSNBC right now. Chris Matthews is almost critical — no, not even almost, he's flat-out critical of President Obama on the economic front. He mentions an earlier conversation with CNBC's manic stock analyst Jim Cramer and a University of Maryland professor (Peter Morici?) knocking Obama for several economic decisions — that the stimulus bill needed more real infrastructure and less pork, that the housing bill isn't inspiring confidence and doesn't look like it will work, and that no one has faith in Tim Geithner's solution for the banks.

Howard Fineman of Newsweek says Obama has been "grim and a little distant at the same time . . . Tim Geithner hasn't inspired any confidence anywhere, as far as I can tell."

Matthews: "He seems like Barney Fife to me."

Welcome to reality Chris... I guess that tingling in the leg thing has healed itself eh?

Idiot.

He seems like what he has always seemed like to me and what his record as a state senator and US senator foretold, had anyone bothered to seriously question it or examine his novice skills and lacking abilities.

Obama is not a leader, he is an armchair QB and front man for the socialist arm of the democrat party: and when the game isn't going his way, he changes channels and opts out of the discussion until something else grabs the public's attention.

Only to return later to see what others have come up with for him to talk about. Or to see if the dilemma has gone away

I can't wait to hear his speech later tonight. That promises to be a real barn burner. Too bad so many people in America are familiar with the remarks of FDR and Abe Lincoln. There is such a wealth that could have been mined there by Obama, if so many weren't so familiar.

He could have explained that we need not fear the fear of becoming a house divided and unable to stand against itself!

As long as we can remain focused on the hope of change and change for the better good of all. And change for a changed and fair tomorrow etc. etc. infinitum.

I think this is the point in the game? When the crowd is looking and hoping for the hail Mary? And all that the imposter can do, is to fall to his knees and utter a few hail Mary's.

But I have faith in the kid. I say he punts and hopes for better field position on the next possession.
