Rather: We may be seeing the Obama we wanted in 2008.

[RandySF]

Dan Rather was on Rachel Maddow and suggested that we already see a more forceful, confident Obama than we saw during most of the first term. To paraphrase "We may be seeing the Obama everyone thought they were getting in 2008". I sure hope so!

1. Is this the same Rather who had a feeling Romney was going to have a good election day?

[BlueCaliDem]

8. Yeah, I'm still perplexed by that statement.

I seriously don't know what he meant by that.

[Warpy]

2. I hope so

I think if he'd made an appearance before now, we might not still have an intransigent House to deal with.

Boner has already dug his expensively shod orange heels in over taxing the sainted rich.

3. I think so, too.

[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]And very happy about it!

4. I think we saw it in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and that is why Obama was reelected

so we can have the best year ever in 2013 and 2014 and 2015 and 2016

President Obama is the gift that keeps on giving and believing he was not effective, seems to have missed the gains already made and to remember 10% of something was 1000 times better
than 0 percent of nothing

5. I know we are.

He's won re-election and now his second act will be greater than his first...which was amazing.

[dem4ward]

6. I think he well learned his lesson

in his first term. He's been on fire ever since and I luv him! Get em Mr. President!

7. He lost all credibility when he predicted a Romney win.

[Raine]

9. I'm very hopeful we will. nt

[malaise]

10. Is this the same Rather who said that Rmoney was going to win

the elections and the elections would be so very close.
Fugg him too!
