He's pissed and in a good way


He fit Romney into the middle of the speach and soared after that, more determined and very gritty.

My guess, good by filibuster hello dream act.

He sounds like a man that is about to launch a campaign of legislative reform and go around the House of Representatives.

This time the second verse is sounding even better than the first.

People are going to hate it but Obama is going to blow their fucking minds in the coming months.

And. Given how narrowly he won I will remind the detractors that he had to play the middle gambit to get reelected.

of leadership.

He may start with a whole series of feel good legislative initiatives like the dream act that will leaverage splits in the Republican House by playing the Hispanic card.

Individually they may not be significant but taken together it will be a whirlwind.

So much for taking time off and resting. He sounds like he's starting the campaign not ending it.

Tweety saying he should have mentioned Clinton. I guess that would have been good.
