Honestly... if you are a Democrat, Progressive or a Euro-Styled Socialist Lite... you may need to start worrying...

Politicker wrote: President Obama’s Speech Gets A Thumbs Down From Political Press Corps
Prior to President Barack Obama’s marathon 54 minute speech in Ohio today, the Obama campaign sent our several statements promising the speech would be a major address framing the campaign going forward. Despite the hype, the speech was mainly a rehash of themes and ideas from the president’s recent stump speeches and his remarks were widely panned as overly long by the political press corps.
Democratic Rep. Mark Critz of Pennsylvania wrote: “President Obama and others in Washington need to realize that we cannot spend our way to prosperity and that to in order to create jobs,” Critz, who represents much of the late John Murtha’s district around the Western Pennsylvania town of Johnstown. “We need to address unfair trade deals that ship jobs overseas and enact policies that allow us to take advantage of our vast natural resources such as coal and natural gas in a safe and responsible manner which will lower energy costs and create jobs and approving the Keystone XL Pipeline would be a good first step.”
MSNBC’s Jonathan Alter wrote: Just cheerleading BO doesn't help him. He needs a sharper, more cogent message with some memorable lines. I ain't walking my criticism back
Dana Millbank of the Washington Post wrote: I had high hopes for President Obama’s speech on the economy. But instead of going to Ohio on Thursday with a compelling plan for the future, the president gave Americans a falsehood wrapped in a fallacy.
The falsehood is that he has been serious about cutting government spending. The fallacy is that this election will be some sort of referendum that will break the logjam in Washington.
But none of that is going to help Obama, because he hasn’t come up with a viable alternative. It isn’t enough to claim that the other guys have a bad plan (though they do). As Democratic strategists Stan Greenberg and James Carville wrote in a memo widely discussed this week, Obama needs a “new narrative” that “focuses on what we will do to make a better future for the middle class.”[/i]
It looks the the media and the general public has finally caught on that "it's" no longer Bush's fault... the state of the union is totally in the lap of Obama... and it stinks.

The headline should read: "The Right WISHES that Obama's Ohio "reframe" speech leaves the left unimpressed"
In your dreams... Oh, and the obligatory:
Gee, I wonder if Gov "I'm Not Obama" realizes that running on "I'm not Obama" is not going to be enough...since apparently he doesn't have a single idea that isn't recycled George W. Bush drivel that's been proven not to work?

Well... if you bothered to read the quotes and the links, you would see where you are 100 percent wrong. That Walker win really left you spinning like a top. Slow down, smell the flowers... face reality... Obama is in trouble. And constantly denying the facts won't change them. May make you feel better though. For everyone else, you look silly.

Just had a converstaion with my golf buddy in FL.
we had the usual chat and then he always brings up politics.
He is Black and what made me really laugh hard was he said
"Obama is the dumbest WHITE guy I everheard, even worse than JC"

Carter II. Obama is an embodiment of the Peter Principle. A man who is in over his head.
And Democrats For Sale? Mitt could win on just proving he isn't Obama.
I went to a Roller Girl match and the players to raise money sold dates. Pretty tacky I thought, but poor Obama is now selling dinner dates for donations. And I guess he isn't enough of a draw for the average Dem money guy so he is now including celebrities at the dinner.
"I know you won't attend a $5000 plate dinner with me, but will you go if George Clooney is there?"
Thomas Sowell: There are no solutions, just trade-offs.
