You and Marc both have a strange recollection of past events.Obama impressed me when he went to that Republican Convention about Healthcare and totally dismantled them on each and every point...on live TV to boot.
Remember how Lush Rimbaugh et al was calling it a setup.
Meanwhile they had been DEMONIZING it and Obama for like a year and a half.
When it came to brass knuckles they had bupkiss.
Classic!!!
^^^^^^
That.
Plus, I was also impressed how he managed to bring his signature piece of legislation back from the brink with just one SOTU speech.
Up until that point it looked like it would be '94 all over again for HC Reform.
1. Obama did not destroy the GOP in that convention.. He didn't even win a single point.
2. The Senate had to resort to parliamentary tricks to get obamacare passed.
