"Republicans will say I don't know how to create jobs". Watch Romney use that in ads where he leaves out the first part of the quote and we see Obama simply saying "I'm in over my head, I don't know how to create jobs". I'm not criticizing Obama, just expecting the worst from the professional liar and deceiver, Mitt Romney.

OTOH, crowds showed up and stood silent like zombies when Shit-for-Brains read words from his handlers.

Was he in the bathroom? Did he go out for coffee? What speech was HE listening to? He called this "one of the worst" from Obama. I really don't know what he heard. I though Obama was on fire!

Most people will not listen to a 54 minute speech though, so I don't think it was a real game changer. He did make some good points of our plan vs their plan, and he should really hammer that Romney believes he should get more tax cuts before investing in the public anymore. That was a great point and he should hammer him with it.

Obama's events with a signs like "Democrats, Cleaning up Republican messes since 1933" and "You're needed at Romeny's event. He's missing an audience."

a responsible adult . . . a rarity in politics. No drama - No histrionics or theatrics -- Well delivered, insightful speech, and I think, well-received.
