The man can "Float like a butterfly...

Shame He has a glass jaw". Obama looked like a whipped heavyweight and sounded like one at His news conference.

1. He sounded much better.. and was more poised... then Clinton was in 1994

Clinton looked and sounded much more defeated than Obama did yesterday.

Obama will recover emotionally much faster than Clinton did..... and when the GOP tries the same bullshit with Obama that they tried with Clinton, they'll get the same results.

2. He looked like a whipped puppy. I don't get the defeatism - the utter lack of FIGHT.

3. I thought he was all class. He took the questions and provided a clear

answer.

What would you have done under the same circumstances? Give the guy a break!

4. The OP and post #2 are always looking for an excuse to attack the President

...doesn't matter if it is grounded in reality or not.

9. I guess they wanted him to look like Bush--smirking and unaware of any problem.

:thumbsdown:

Myself, I thought it was good that the defeat had set him back on his heels and caused him to re-assess things. And I'm glad he took time to mention that some very good people lost their seats because they took some hard votes.

6. The OP is one of the Presidents biggest supporters

But if he keeps compromising with these right wing morons he will compromise himself right out of office. That is all I'm saying.

7. Disagree

While I would have been in a brawl with those arrogant little shits, Obama outclassed them. He remains the classiest prez since Carter.

Perhaps your capitalization of "He" and "His" puts you in the group that would really like to call him Messiah, but since you are on DU, well, better not?

8. The more Obama capitulates, the more he makes Neville Chamberlain look like Rocky

10. aa

obama will recover emotionally from this setback if for only that he invests almost next nothing emotionally......
clinton MO was feeling your pain, obama will watch it from a distance, set a bold vision, and then squirrel away all the important parts of it..

11. B.S. Did you SEE it, or just read the crapola?

He indeed floats like a butterly, and the sting will come later when the repukes finally show their true colors to the world.
