Let me see: Obama's "I like to know what I am talking about" was the best
response, and this causes the token freeper on CNN to declare him a "one term president?"

Sure, we'd rather have presidents who have no idea what they are talking about, since they were elected in the first place to provide pretty faces and to say and do what they are told.

:banghead:

1. I, as an American voter, LOVED that response. It was a put down with elegance.
We had 8 years of a president that had no clue what he was talking about. Look what that got us.

4. Nothing pretty, manly or sexy at all. Certainly not informed or intelligent or able to answer
questions.

8. I think that his name is Alex Castellano
He was the PR man for Romney and has been the pundit "from the right" on CNN. Because it was CNN's Ed Henry - normally a capable reporter, really - they spent a lot of time on that exchange. Castellano claimed that "there is a thin line between confidence and arrogance" and was suggesting that Obama's apparently losing his confidence with that exchange will lead to further unraveling.

As he was talking, bot David Gergen and Paul Begala were shaking their heads and grinning.
