The president gave the Republicans what they needed on Thursday night, and now their future rests squarely with them. Because his "speech" to a bored Congress said nothing new and his retreaded fixes for the economy aren't going to help anytime soon. Consequently, his chances for re-election continue to shrink.
What really amuses me though, is how the press and the pundits try to take everyone's eye off the ball by manufacturing excuses for the administration's failures. Because on Friday the business headlines all suggested that that there was grave concern over the financial woes in Europe, and that Greece might default on its debt. That, they said, was causing a downturn for American stocks.
The fact of the matter, however, was that U.S. stockholders of all types, from major players to individual investors, were illustrating their take on the president's recovery plans and the Dow sunk more than 300 points.
So, the flaks and the hustlers can make all the noise they want about what a great job the administration's doing, and that all our ills are still George W's fault. But since the unions and a few of the hard core left are just about all the incumbent still has in his corner, he can walk around with his microphone 24/7/365 but, he's nonetheless going to lose in a landslide like never seen before in our nation.
That's it for today folks.
Adios
