Willard is giving a "prebuttal" to the PRESIDENT'S SOTU speech right now.

Why is it being covered in the media? He's not even the Repub. nominee (yet, if ever). Talk about arrogance.

ETA: Faux isn't covering it, but MSNBC and CNN are.

Obama hasn't even delivered the speech and I doubt that the full text of it is available either. I hate "responses" to SOTU too.

but of course Romney just wants to act like he's already the Repub. nominee, bashing Obama at every chance while trying to look "presidential." He hasn't figured out that he has to look HUMAN before even THINKING about looking presidential.

Bush* was never the President. His administration's total destruction of the economy never occurred.

It is ALL Obama's fault.
