I personally thought he did very well and hit all the right notes for the general public who is not as in tune as those of us who watch MSNBC, etc and most importantly, keep in tune via our own research.

5. And of course now Rachel is talking about the racial profiling question
I was pissed when that question was asked. Let's stick to the topic of the night.

2. They were obviously watching some other presser
than we were. I thought he did a great job.

Listen to them!
They're making that joke Obama made about "getting shot" if he tried to break into the White House into some kind of racial statement.

ANYONE would be shot if they tried to break into the White House.

Oh, these people really need - as we say here in the South - to have their tits slapped together............................

3. I just heard myself say out loud,
"Oh, blow me, Howard."

I'm female.

I think Howard really upset me ......................

6. He was imagining the presser he saw in his head that would give him the best chance to flap his lips
about senseless crap.

9. he kept repeating that Obama sounded "tired" - ??

i didn't think he sounded tired at all! :wtf:

like the OP, i thought that Obama hit all the right notes, and personally i was impressed, he did better than i expected and even made me slightly hopeful about the reform, again...

13. Wrong. the general public is quite aware of the hell that is the healthcare
system. Obama has a mandate...time to plow the opposition into the ground.

14. I think he was tired of having to come out again and smack everyone in the sandbox
and say play nice... Between the spin media, crazy republicans, bought conservadems.. he's tired of having to get them back on track. I think his healthcare numbers are down because the American people think we aren't going to get it again.

16. You can throw Ed Schultz in the mix too.
I turned him off as soon as he started acting like Fineman regarding Obama's performance tonight.

And here I thought that this press conference was the best one yet. Silly me.
