Obama - the useless President who invaded two sovereign nations, increased terrorist attacks in the US by 400%, gave us ISIS, most secretive administration in history, kept the economy down for 8 years, destroyed relations with every ally, brought back the Cold War, and brought us Donald Trump has done a lot.This was a speech built entirely around key voting blocks.
He specifically spoke to inner city dwellers, union workers, coal miners, African-Americans, LGBT, law enforcement, disenfranchised Bernie Sanders supporters and Democrats in general. His daughter covered single moms and working moms, using Democrat talking points.
He did acknowledge along the way the "three-legged stool" of fiscal, defense and social conservatives.
Deduction: His internals must be showing he can draw Democrats across, if he can offer some common ground.
I've been saying that the question many conservatives are asking is "Please give me just one good reason that I can feel okay voting for you. Please."
Tonight would suggest that many Democrats may be asking "Please give me one good reason that I can feel okay voting for you -- because I sure don't want to vote for Hillary."
Conclusion: He could actually win this thing with surprising numbers. Numbers that standard polling will not elicit.
(Your results may vary. Tax, title and license extra. Ask your doctor. I am not a Trump supporter, just an observer.)
His speech (read it this morning for the most part) was regurgitated stump. If you were not going to vote for this guy before the speech, he gave you little reason to vote for him in the speech. The “Im the only one that can fix it” is especially hilarious since, if nothing else, any American who was paying attention for 10 minutes in the last eight years was shown how little a President can do when the opposition party is around.
I give Obama almost no chance of winning in 2016.
